Easter festivities in the area were dampended somewhat by morning rain on Saturday. Several egg hunts took place, however, including the 30th anniversary of the Edina Realty Egg hunt held at Roadside Park. Some of the organizers gathered under the Picnic shelter, while others like Chuck Conant, marked out the age categories and scattered candy.
Kristy Lunby Hill provided some weather history.
I spoke with some kids and parents waiting for the official starting horn. This family definitely had a strategy first Mom
Dad’s idea was a little different.
Sandy Becker, officer manager for Edina Realty explained why the event is fun, no matter the weather.
Although the kids were fine with getting wet,Dad was keeping himself dry with a very small umbrella. I asked him where it came from
We also got some reaction from one of the lucky winners, whose name was Grady. He found a specially numbered candy that won him a giant rabbit.
We’ve posted lots of photos and even a video of the exciting horn blasting start of the event on the KDWA Facebook page for the community to enjoy.
