Yes, the spring event you’ve all waited for so you can use up all those pieces of leftover felt, old feathers, buttons, sequins, glitter, magazines, we could go on, is coming again to the Avenue. Merchants will contribute goodies to baskets which will then be awarded in age appropriate prize categories for the best hats. Whimsy plus recycling equals big rewards or at least lots of fun!

Every child from toddler to 13 will receive a small basket of goodies regardless of decorating abilities. The parade down the Avenue will start at the Lakeshore Avenue Baptist Church at 11 AM with last minute decorating possible between 10 and 11 courtesy of the Church. After the parade and prizes are awarded, stay for the Spring Festival where freshly made corn dogs among other refreshments, egg decorating, and face painting will be the order of the day for young and old alike.

You can buy your plastic derbies for decorating now at Silver Lining Jewelry-3340, Silver Moon Kids-3233, George’s Cleaners-3310, Flipside Burgers-3401, Adventure Toys and Learning-3291, all on Lakeshsore or possibly last minute at the Church for only $2. Everything else is free at this wonderful annual event.
