Castle Manor hosts Easter Egg Hunt

[April 06, 2026]    

On Good Friday, Castle Manor welcomed children to their back lawn for an Easter Egg Hunt. Two Easter Bunnies and a giant pink Easter egg were also on hand to welcome the children, pose for photos, and help collect the eggs. The grass was a little wet from the recent showers, but the weather was warm, and the rains held off.

Residents of Castle Manor had filled over 1,000 eggs with candy, and employees scattered them across the back lawn. Only a few golden eggs were hidden. If a child found a golden egg, they received a special Easter prize basket. The children were divided into four age groups. The youngest group was for babies a few months old. They were able to grab stuffies from kiddie pools provided by Michelle Bauer of Country Financial. Rome, who is 5½ months old, smiled as he was greeted by the Easter Bunny.

Each age group took its turn, with the oldest group going last. The Easter bunnies and Easter eggs cheered on the children as they searched for the golden eggs. Larger prize baskets were given to those who found the golden eggs. Carter was enjoying the festivities while his family snapped pictures of him with the Easter Egg.

After the hunt, families stayed to mingle and take pictures with the Easter Bunny at the photo station. They also enjoyed donuts and muffins. All Fluff was making cotton candy. Harry, Evelyn, and Presley were all smiles as they were about to enjoy their cotton candy. The blue smiles all around showed that the cotton candy stand was a hit with kids and adults alike.
