Super fun Saturdays all month long at the library! 🐣 💐 🦒

This community shows up! 🤩 A little chill in the air didn’t stop hundreds of families, and our community businesses and partners, from having some Easter fun with the kids at the Bunny Hop!

A great big thank-you to the families, the Downtown North Sydney Business Improvement and Development Association, our downtown businesses, the CBRM for the road closure, the Cape Breton Regional Police Service, the North Sydney Fire Dept., and the Easter Bunny, of course, for making wonderful memories with the children.

Feel free to share your pics below. Happy Easter, everyone! 😊 🐰 🐣

It’s going to be a crisp, but calm and sunny morning, little bunnies! Sure to bring out some rosy cheeks! ☀️

From 10-11, the Easter Bunny will be in front of the library for a meet and greet and will be hopping up and down the Commercial St. bunny trail.

Downtown merchants will open their doors at 10 am and will distribute treats until 11:30 or while quantities last. Don’t forget your Easter baskets!

A reminder: The stretch of Commercial St. from Blowers to King will be closed to vehicular traffic to ensure pedestrian safety. We encourage everyone to park on adjacent side streets and walk down to Commercial/Blowers. (Also, we ask that you please DO NOT park in the Dooly’s/Bargain Binz parking lot as this is needed for their customers. Thank you!)

Bundle up, put on your best bunny ears, and come on downtown for this free, fun, and festive event in the heart of town. We can’t wait to see everybunny! 🐣🐰 🪺
