Malad EMTs decided to ignore the snowcovered park and move forward with the tradition of an Easter egg hunt on the Saturday before Easter. The perimeter of the park was clear of snow, and organizers took advantage of those spots. They were filled with Easter eggs, Easter candy, and toys. It really wasn’t much of a “hunt”. There was something in almost every bare spot of ground, and kids swarmed the fields and had them all cleaned up in less than five minutes.

There were lots of smiles and happy kids. The Easter Bunny was even flown in by Portneuf Medical Rescue. The helicopter landed on the west side of the park, and the Bunny had to trudge through deep snow to get to the kids. 

Many thanks to the EMTs for organizing the event, and for everyone that donated eggs and toys. There were lots of smiles as adults and children enjoyed a beautiful, spring day!
