Escalon Kiwanis Club, the Escalon FFA and members of the Key Club – student arm of the Kiwanis – joined forces to host the annual Easter Egg Hunt at El Portal Middle School on Saturday. The eagerly anticipated ‘hunt’ draws dozens of youngsters to the school campus for the day-before-Easter festivities each year, with well over 1,000 plastic eggs scattered and hidden in four different hunting areas. Divided by age, the hunters take off when the signal is given and collect all the eggs they can find.
