Council updates: food distribution, low Easter egg turnout, donated circus tickets
Summary
Councilmembers reported upcoming food distribution, an MPO meeting, donated circus tickets for children in need, and a low turnout (about 20 children) at the town's Easter egg hunt; concerns were raised about late publicity for the event.
During the reports of current events, Councilmember Cynthia Butterworth reminded volunteers about the monthly food distribution event and said volunteers should arrive at 7:00 p.m. to help prepare bags and assist with distribution.
Mayor Pro Tem Christy Hirshberg said she had donated circus tickets and noted additional donated tickets are available for families in need. Councilmember Nallely Arreola promoted a library contest for children to win free circus tickets.
Councilmember Geovona Thompson reported she had participated in the town's Easter egg hunt and said turnout was low: "I think there was maybe 20, maybe 20 kids." Thompson said she did not see a flyer for the event until the day before and suggested that outreach timing may have affected attendance. Mayor Wallace praised Huachuca City School students for winning awards in a county‑wide water‑wise art contest and encouraged attendance at the upcoming circus.
The reports were informational; no council motions or formal actions were recorded in connection with these updates.
