Egg-citing Times at Ennis Montana Lions Club Easter Egg Hunt
Egg-citing Times at Ennis Montana Lions Club Easter Egg Hunt
Ennis, Montana – The Ennis Montana Lions Club hosted a cracking good time at their annual Easter Egg Hunt on March 30, drawing in over 250 eager egg hunters across three age categories. The event, made possible by the generous support of sponsors like the Madison Valley Women’s Club, First Madison Valley Bank, and First Interstate Bank, brought together families and friends for a day of festive fun. However, before the egg hunting could commence, the diligent Lions took to the fields on Friday for some pre-hunt cleanup, ensuring that only the eggs were hidden, not any unwanted surprises left by local wildlife. As Lion George has warned for years, “Don’t eat the brown jelly beans!”
A heartfelt shoutout goes to Ennis teacher Jamie Diehl and her students, who went above and beyond by cooking and dyeing a whopping 60 dozen eggs! Thanks to Stacy at Ennis Pharmacy & Yesterday’s for the storage of the eggs. These colorful creations added an extra dash of charm to the event.
As the sun peeked out from behind the clouds, attendees were treated to the sight of special guests hopping around – none other than the Easter Bunny and the Easter Lion! Their presence added an extra layer of joy to the proceedings.
For those with furry companions, Rachel at Treasure State Treats sponsored a Dog Easter Egg Hunt, ensuring that even the four-legged members of the community could get in on the action.
In total, the Lions hid over 1300 eggs, ensuring there were plenty to go around for all the eager hunters. And here’s the sweetest part: over 600 of those eggs were filled with candy and fruit snacks, adding an extra delicious twist to the treasure hunt.
With laughter echoing through the Ennis Lions Park and smiles stretching from ear to ear, the Lions Club Easter Egg Hunt proved to be yet another egg-cellent success, leaving everyone already counting down the days until next year’s festivities.
