The beach adjacent to Mulligan’s Beach House was littered with several thousand colorful, plastic eggs left by a tall, furry rabbit, just waiting for little boys and girls to gather up during the 62nd annual Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by the City of Vero Beach Recreation Department and Mulligan’s.
While the children and their families eagerly awaited the start of the hunt, they took photos with the Easter Bunny and lined up to have their faces painted. And then they were off, as little ones ranging in age from toddlers to age 9 scampered across the sand and in the grass, shrieking and giggling with glee while searching for the candy-filled eggs. There were prizes for every child, and those lucky enough to discover golden tickets won Easter baskets filled with trinkets.
At 7 p.m. on Aug. 4, 5 and 6, the COVB Recreation Department will present the 48th annual Aerial Antics Youth Circus: Heroes and Villains, at Saint Edward’s School. Registration for summer gymnastics classes begins June 11 at Leisure Square.
