As a small business owner I have continually tried to give back to this community in some pretty big ways. As with most small businesses I have felt the impact of the current market. I have pivoted, gotten creative, cut all the fat out… just to survive. It is with deep sadness that I announce after five years… I will not be doing this years annual egg hunt I know many people in the community have come to look forward to this event
In previous years I have sacrificed business space, time, resources, and money to get the egg hunt going, fill in all the gaps and make everything happen I do not have the same financial sources, even with donations, or the vast amount of time needed this year to make this happen This is a decision i have truly agonized over
I am hoping that there is someone or a group of community members who want to step up and make the needed investments to take this over
I would love to see someone continue on….

Thank you to everyone who has supported the Easter egg hunt in previous years it has truly meant so much to see the community come together

Thinking of sending us some Easter eggs??
Please send us TOY PREFILLED EGGS. We try to maintain a no candy policy.
Eggs filled with bubbles and slime are always a big hit!

As this event grows each year, I find I have to allot more and more time to organizing.
Each week I will post an item or items that are needed for this event and a call to action. I NEEDgenerous individuals to step up and help out our community so every child is provided for. I will be reaching out to area business near and far and encourage community involvement.
This year marks the 5th year I have done this, and our biggest year! We are expecting over 500 children to come out and celebrate spring, life, happiness and community.
This events mission has been and will continue to be … Maine comes alive, we gather to connect with our neighbors. We gather to show one another that we are here and that we care about each other.
This years theme is …. We see you. All too often individuals, families, elderly sit through a long winter in isolation. Struggling silently in their own worlds feeling unseen, forgotten. Winters can be so difficult for so many. Increased expenses make living difficult; decreased travel due to poor road conditions makes connecting hard. WE SEE YOU… WE ARE YOU.
This year our goal is provide help to as many people and families as we can. This year will take the love and commitment of our entire village. No donation is too small. No act of kindness will go unnoticed.
I have a vision for this year and I’m pretty determined to make some magic. I can’t wait to bring out the Easter bunnies!

**the photo is this weeks item.
We need 100 balls
Currently I have two people who have stepped up and already ordered them for us.
I need three more people to help out. Let me know if you have ordered please 🙂
