One young girl couldn’t contain her joy or her enthusiasm as the signal sounded and the hunt began. Great Bend Kiwanis Club members have been coordinating the hunt for more than 60 years, all in pursuit of their mission to give enjoyment to children.
In the run-up to Easter, the Easter Bunny made an appearance in Great Bend Saturday morning at the annual Kiwanis Club Easter Egg Hunt at the Argonne Forest on the north end of Veterans Memorial Park. Families began lining up along the south side of the walking trail there, with hundreds of plastic eggs and countless pounds of candy ($800 worth) already scattered across a wide section of the park by club members. Earlier in the wee, members of the Rosewood Aktion Club met and filled over 500 eggs with candy for the event, Barb Esfeld, the club secretary said.
