Photos: Community Easter egg hunt at Centennial Park

By Howard B. Owens

Dozens and dozens of children -- from toddlers on up -- swarmed Centennial Park this morning to gather dozens and dozens of brightly colored Easter eggs.

Sponsored by Batavia Kiwanis, Batavia Police were also on hand -- including Officer Dan Coffey, whose patrol car was almost more popular than the Easter Bunny after the hunt.

Once upon a time a young rabbit wanted to be the Easter Bunny.
The other rabbits laughed, saying, “You’re not even old enough to shave!”
So he shaved.
But at Easter the children refused to accept him.
“You’re not the Easter Bunny!” they cried. “You haven’t any whiskers!”

And the moral is:
.....................................................................................................................................................................................
.Wait for it..................................................................................................................

A bunny shaved is a bunny spurned.
