Weekend Re-cap!

This past Saturday was an amazing day!  LifeStone Church hosted the first annual South Side Easter Egg Hunt called, “The Big Hunt”.  They day started off at 10am for most of us with the set up of the entire event.  There was a lot to set up with food stations, sound system, games, craft tables, face painting table, prize table, registration, and of course a bunch of decoration!  We were blessed to be able to use the Armstrong Field in South Side.  This was a perfect location for this event!  the event started around 1pm, but by 12:30pm, there were already lines forming outside of the fence of the park!  It was a great site to see!  Everyone was so excited and so patient as we kicked off right at 1pm.  Parents and excited children began to file into the field where they had their choice of so many different activities.  The food line was long most of the day (go figure…lol).  But it seemed as if everyone was having an awesome time!  The weather was perfect and to top it off, Rita’s donated 5 gallons of italian ice to us.  People loved it!  Right at 2pm, people started to navigate over to the section of the field where all 7,000 of the Easter eggs were located.  As soon as we said “GO”  300 kids went crazy!  It was an amazing site!  Once they had filled their bags, they went over to the prize table to collect their candy and prizes they won.  Each egg had a number in it and that number represented a type of candy or prize they could redeem.  After they got their prizes, most people began to head home or at least leave the field.  We finished up right at 3pm and began to tear down what was one of the best if the best day LifeStone Church has had up to this point!
We want to thank all of the parents/grandparents/guardians, etc. who brought their kids to The Big Hunt!  We hope you had an amazing time and will always remember that there is a church that truly cares about you and your life!  This opportunity to host an Easter Egg hunt was not about us, it was about the families!  We did this so the families and kids of the community could have a connection point with each other and to help bring the sense of community back to South Side!
