On Saturday, March 28, the Collinsville Area Chamber of Commerce held its annual Easter Egg Hunt at 10 a.m. at Pelphrey Field.
A total of 5,000 eggs were gathered into the baskets of approximately 100 children under supervision of the Easter Bunny.
A prize basket was awarded to one child in each age division for finding the prize egg. Winners were:
Under 3 years - Kendall Reynolds, age 2, of Valley View
3-5 years - Tatum Leonard, age 5, of Collinsville
6-8 years - Brooks Millson, age 7, of Collinsville
9 years and up - Alice Scott, 9 yrs, of Gainesville
Sponsors in part were 4U Credit Union, Farmers Insurance-Ashley Schoonover and Emilia’s Cleaning Service.
Collinsville Park Board provided a decorative setting for photos with the Easter Bunny.
Chamber Board members and Frank Maxwell, KCB volunteer, distributed the eggs prior to hunting.
Special thanks to all the adults that brought the kids out to enjoy the fun!
