Lots of ‘egg-citement’ at Lucky Park on Good Friday

Members of the Lucky CIC held their annual Good Friday Free Egg Hunt with approximately 300 attending. Children up to 12 years of age participated in three age groups. Eggs filled with treats were hidden in the Lucky Park, with prizes being awarded to ‘lucky’ hunters finding the most eggs, and to the one finding the least amount of eggs.
Youngsters were treated with a visit from Mr. Chicken, sponsored by Dairy Queen. They also provided certificates for free Dilly Bars to guests. They also participated in various door prize drawings. Volunteer workers provided refreshments for all attendees.
Lucky CIC president Jonathan Womack, and a host of community volunteers worked diligently to make the day a success, with much work having been completed at the park.
‘My kids grew up here playing in this area, and the park is so nice. We moved here 18 years ago, and are so happy the park has come back to life. It is truly a blessing to the community,’ said community volunteer Judy Turner.
Thanks to sponsors, and a lot of community involvement, Lucky Park boasts a new playground, a two-mile walking trail, park benches, a pavilion with a bridge, and lovely landscaping. It is also lit for evening and night activities.
Along with Womack, other officers include: Kenneth King, vice president; Sharon Womack, secretary; and Diane Adcock, treasurer.
Lucky CIC meets the first Monday of each month, with a pot luck supper provided. Community watch meetings, along with the business meetings are conducted at this time. Anyone interested in attending is cordially invited.
