On Saturday, April 1, Catholic Charities of Tioga and many other organizations teamed up to host an Easter Egg Hunt and Party <\/i>for everyone in the community to enjoy. Approximately 500 people attended from all over Tioga County as well as neighboring counties.<\/p>\n

Over 300 children were able to enjoy the Egg Hunt and take part in all of the fun activities that were provided at Kirby Park in Nichols. <\/p>\n
