The Easter Bunny will be there to pass out the eggs!
During our social distancing, FSS would like to make sure you have everything you need for your own family egg hunt. That’s why we’ve stuffed 6,000 eggs for distribution and we are ready for you to pick-up them up. 20 eggs per child.

get out and enjoy the outdoors Here are a couple of hikes the OAC had planned for April that had to be cancelled. Feel free to get out and explore on your own!
North Table Mountain Ecological Reserve
This is located 7 miles north of Oroville, CA. Outdoor enthusiasts can take in the grandeur of springtime! Hike among the wildflower blooms on your way to explore the awesome Beatson Falls.
outdoor activities and social distancing Health experts say physical exercise is important for both physical and mental health. When outdoors, following strict guidlines by maintaining a 6-foot distance from everyone around you is still necessary. However, this can be a challenge at popular outdoor locations and on narrow trails. Use common sense when you approach others in a crowded situation and be safe. Here's a list of things you can do outside while maintaining CDC social distancing:
• Tennis • Golf • Fishing • Kayaking • Jogging or running • Walking your dog • Hiking
Independence Trail
Located north of Nevada City off Hwy 49. This trail is very level and an easy hike. Perfect for a family with strollers! Take in the amazing vistas along the South Yuba River.
