“We’ve all been through so very much. It’s been a long six and a half months, and we all need a little bit of joy,” said Rae Patton from the Valley Hope Foundation. “This was a great opportunity to bring the community together.”
In addition to the egg drop, attendees enjoyed pony and hayrides, as well as arts and crafts activities, making it a day filled with fun and community spirit.
