Food trucks, the Easter Bunny, face painting and over half a dozen sponsors rounded out the main event, which was held this time inside the ball diamond. Even with all the sunshine, mud was still a factor although it did nothing to stem the excitement of kids and parents sprinting off like rabbits at the sound of the start. - Vivien Fleisher photo
