Come to the Easter Faire on April 23
The City's annual Easter Faire will be held on Saturday, April 23, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in Paramount Park. This family oriented event has been a treasured outing for many years in the community.
We'll again be featuring game booths, field competitions, a moon bounce and numerous other activities. There will also be an egg hunt in the park and, of course, a visit by the Easter Bunny. The festivities are free, but vendors will be offering food for sale.
