Hundreds of children came out to the East Meadow Chamber of Commerce’s fourth annual Easter egg hunt on April 8. Dressed in festive colors, and donning bunny ears and Easter baskets, these egg-hunters left no spare egg or treat behind at Veterans Memorial Park. Once they were given the green light to go, they set their sights on as many eggs as they could hold.
The sun was shining as children greeted the Easter Bunny, and even got to say hello to some “Star Wars” characters from the 501st Legion, Empire City Garrison, an international organization dedicated to the creation and wearing of detailed replicas of villains from the “Star Wars” universe.
Over 2,000 eggs filled with treats were scattered on the park lawn.
