Thanks to everyone who came out for the annual Mentelle Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt this morning.  Our neighborhood children found all 912 donated eggs within 10 minutes!

Special thanks to: Kim Naujokas, who organized the event and donated the coffee and Spalding’s donuts; Dean Holt, who starred as the Easter Bunny; and to all of you who donated candy-filled plastic eggs and cleaned up and prepared the Mentelle Park median for today’s event.

Easter Egg hunt is tomorrow!

We look forward to seeing all Mentelle Neighborhood residents and their families tomorrow at 10 a.m. for our annual Easter Egg Hunt. Thanks to the generosity of our neighbors, we have plenty of eggs for another wonderful hunt this year!

We will gather in between the two medians closest to Cramer Avenue. Kids aged 5-10 will hunt on the first median (closest to Cramer) and those younger than 5 will hunt on the second median. The Easter Bunny will be with us for photos from 9:45 – 10:30 a.m. Complimentary coffee and Spalding’s Bakery donuts will be available for all neighborhood residents to enjoy.

See you at the hunt!

Giving eggs for the hunt? Hop to it!

Our annual Easter Egg Hunt is right around the corner! If you wish to donate filled plastic eggs for the Mentelle Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, March 30, please bring them to the porch of 29 Mentelle Park. Donations will be accepted until the evening of Friday, March 29.  We would love to have at least 600 eggs to make this a fun and memorable event for our neighborhood’s children. Thank you to everyone who has already dropped off eggs!

The hunt will begin at 10 a.m. on the Mentelle Park medians near Cramer Avenue. There will be two hunts — one for little kids through age 4 and one for bigger kids ages 5-10.  Bigger kids will hunt on the median closest to Cramer and the little ones will hunt on the second median. And the Easter Bunny will be there starting at 9:45 a.m. for photos and to hand out additional treats to the kids.

No small children in your household? No problem! We hope that all Mentelle Neighborhood residents will come out to socialize with your neighbors and celebrate the beginning of spring. Complimentary coffee and delicious donuts from Spalding’s Bakery will be available to all.

We hope to see all Mentelle Neighborhood residents there!
