Easter Egg Hunt (April 2007)
Ben Franklin is proud to support the Monroe Community by contributing to the Egg Hunt! We donated Fun Foam hats and decorations that were used by the Post Office in their craft tent, as well as Little Lamb Puppets that children created in the Ben Franklin craft tent.
"A sincere thank you to all of you for helping to make this year's egg hunt the best year ever! With a little help from Mother Nature, we packed the park with a whole lot of people having a very good time. We hope that each of you will be back again next year. On behalf of Park & Rec Director Mike Farrell and the rest of the city staff - thanks again and see you next year!" Nancy Abell, City of Monroe |
