The Pompton Lakes Council meeting on March 27, 2024, highlighted the success of the recent Easter egg hunt, a beloved community event that drew an impressive crowd. Council members praised the recreation department for organizing a fantastic day, with attendance estimated at over 3,400 people, a significant increase from previous years.
One council member shared, “This is what I love about this town,” emphasizing the sense of community fostered during the event as families gathered to enjoy the festivities. The event featured children eagerly searching for Easter eggs and a long line to meet the Easter Bunny, showcasing the town's vibrant spirit.
Acknowledgments were made to the numerous volunteers who contributed their time and energy to make the event a success, particularly highlighting Larry Crew, who provided DJ services at no cost. The decision to move the event from the previous night, which had been affected by rain, was noted as a positive change that contributed to the turnout.
Overall, the Easter egg hunt not only provided fun for families but also reinforced community bonds, with council members expressing their commitment to continuing such engaging events in the future.
