Mad dash launches egg hunts
Get your Easter egg gift baskets ready.
Instead of snow on the last day of winter, 2,000 brightly colored eggs adorned the lawn next to the Fishkill town hall.
It only took about 15 minutes for them to disappear.
About 200 children took part in the annual Town of Fishkill spring celebration and Easter egg hunt Saturday.
The eggs were collected in three waves of dashing children, starting with the oldest -- all urged on by their parents.
The first group was so eager to start gathering eggs, they tried, unsuccessfully, to speed up the countdown by Fishkill's Recreation Director Cindy Starke.
For the free event, each participant was allowed to collect eight eggs and was given a raffle ticket for gift baskets of stuffed animals and candy.
