Councilmembers highlight food distribution, circus outreach and low Easter-egg-hunt turnout
Summary
Councilmembers urged volunteers for monthly food distribution, promoted donated circus tickets for families and reported a low turnout ("maybe 20" children) at the town's Easter egg hunt, prompting calls for improved event promotion.
During the reports section Councilmember Cynthia Butterworth reminded residents and volunteers about the town's monthly third-Friday food distribution and called for volunteers to help prepare bags and assist at the event.
Mayor Pro Tem Christy Hirshberg said she had donated circus tickets available for families in need and encouraged people to contact her to receive tickets; Nallely Arreola promoted a library giveaway tied to circus tickets. Councilmember Geovona Thompson reported on the town's recent Easter egg hunt, noting a very low turnout: "I think there was maybe 20, maybe 20 kids," Thompson said, and she encouraged better pre-event publicity going forward. Mayor Wallace also noted that Huachuca City School students won top prizes in a countywide Water Wise art contest.
The items were relayed as reports—no council votes or funding actions were recorded for these announcements in the minutes.
