Hinton Easter Egg Hunt Cancelled

Because of the Covid-19 virus, the Hinton Kiwanis Club board members have met and under the circumstances, have made the difficult decision to cancel the annual Hinton Kiwanis Club Easter Egg Hunt.

A spokesman for the Kiwanis said, “We are saddened by the situation, but know that the safety of our community and the children of our community are most important to us. We serve the children of this community and we must put their needs first. Thank you for understanding!”

Hopes had been early in the pandemic that the nation might be out from under the cloud of the virus by Easter, April 12, but governmental and health care officials now believe it will be later in the year.
