Easter Egg Hunt

Easter Egg Hunt

Saturday, March 31, 2007

Saturday, March 31, 2007 was an exciting day as Honors College students and the Center for Community Outreach spent time with children from the Pleasantville Cottage School for an Easter celebration.   They enjoyed dying Easter eggs and an Easter egg hunt on the Miller Hall lawn.   The event was held in Gottesman Room in the Kessel Student Center.  At each of the many tables, different dyes, stickers, and crayons available to use int the decorating of eggs.

Afterwards, children and Pace students were divided up into teams for the Egg Hunt according to the table at which they were seated.   Six teams were established.   Each team was responsible for retrieving eggs of the color that was assigned for them.  One person from each team was responsible for holding a bag in which to place the eggs.   The greatest amount of eggs that each team could have found was fifty.

Even before the hunt began, students were full of energy and enthusiasm to try to find as many eggs as they could in order to win the competition.   In the end, the blue team won.   After the Egg Hunt, everybody went back inside and enjoyed in the candy that was inside the eggs.
             The event was co-sponsored with Golden Key International Honor Society, the Center for Community Outreach, and the Psychology Club.
