Gates Fire Department resumes annual Easter egg hunt

After a two year hiatus, the Gates Fire Department resumed its annual Easter Egg hunt on Easter Sunday. The event was held behind the Gates Community Church. A fun time was had by all attending, including the Easter Bunny, who made a guest appearance. There was no shortage of candy and prizes for the kids, with one happy egg-hunter seen leaving with a nearly full shopping bag full of candy. (Apologies were made to the parents.)
