It was all smiles and “hoppiness” at the Annual Downtown “Hop Around” on March 30. This fun, family event attracted hundreds of people to the downtown area to enjoy free activities and tons of Easter fun! The Hop Around included food trucks, face painting, Easter Bunny photos, candy hunt, and so much more. THANK YOU to all the residents and merchants who came out to support this community event!
