Snellville UMC reports successful Easter event


This blog post is from 2009

A good time was had by all at the Easter Egg hunt at Snellville United Methodist Church:

"The day began with a chill in the air and gusts of wind. By the time Rev. Walter Jones asked God to bless this multi-cultural event, things had warmed up with pleasant weather.

The church hid over 5,000 eggs, which were distributed between 4 age-based egg hunt locations. In between egg hunts, families played games on the field such as the 3-legged event or egg balancing with a spoon in a race around a sand pail.

After the final egg hunt, everyone enjoyed an old fashioned pot luck style picnic with fried chicken supplied by the church. There was plenty of food to go around. The line was long, but their bellies were full.

A special thank you to the following people for making the event so successful: Kathi Clotfelter, for announcing the events, prizes, and comedy during the day: Sandi Lee and her Women's Circle for preparing all of the drinks; Stuart Scruggs and the men's group for setting up and servicing the food and ice; Cliff Hagan, Rob Chewning, and Reese Barnes for picking up the fried chicken and meeting the needs of everyone; Fred Potter and William Alsabrook; Bobbie Higginbotham and Melissa Wilson for monitoring egg hunts and making signs for the event.
