On a beautiful, yet chilly spring morning, eager children lined up at the Fulton County Airport to welcome the Easter Bunny.

Mr. Bunny arrived safely at the airport, bringing joy and excitement to the young ones who couldn’t wait to meet him.

The event, which took place on Saturday, April 8 at 10:00 a.m., was free to the public and sponsored by the Wauseon American Legion Post 265, Aquatek Water Conditioning, and Fulton County Economic Development Corporation.

New Horizons Academy students helped stuff all the eggs for the Easter Egg hunt, which was a part of the festivities.

As soon as Mr. Bunny exited the plane, children lined up to meet him and take pictures with him. They also had the opportunity to check out the planes that were a part of the event and see the inside of a Life Flight helicopter. The Wauseon Fire Department truck and EMS were also on-site for kids to explore.

Pet lovers were in for a treat as Sophie Sterken, a Pettisville student and 4H/FFA member, brought a real bunny rabbit for children to pet.

The Easter Egg Hunt, which was split up for different age groups, was undoubtedly one of the main attractions with “nearly 500 children” participating in the hunt.

The Coffee Depot truck was also onsite, serving coffee to adults who needed a caffeine boost. For those who were feeling lucky, there was a bike raffle.

Overall, the event was a success and brought fun for both kids and adults alike. It was a great opportunity to come together and celebrate Easter in a unique way.
