Both kids and parents had so much fun at Breakfast with the Easter Bunny, which took place last April 17, 2011, Sunday. Children had a sumptuous breakfast with the whole family, with their new friends and of course, the Easter Bunny. All the kids were so happy to see the Easter Bunny dance around and play with them, while participants had a great time with games, with great and exciting prizes up for grabs. The sumptuous breakfast included eggs, sausages and pancakes for everyone, paired with either fresh apple juice or orange juice for the kids and coffee or tea for the grownups. The event happened at the Moose Hall, Fort William Road Thunder Bay, with dozens of kids flocking to the venue looking to have a grand time.

This recently concluded event marked the 15^th year of the annual breakfast together with the Easter Bunny. This wonderful celebration of Easter was presented by Dougall Media in support of Thunder Bay Chapter SIDS, Wesway, Cystic Fibrosis Canada and Fort City Kinettes. It was an open to the public event that happened from 9 in the morning straight until 1 in the afternoon. Tickets were sold at all branches of Royal Bank Thunder Bay, ABC Embroidery and Promotions and from any Fort City Kinette member and were pegged at $5 per person while kids under the age of 3 were admitted for no charges, absolutely free.

The event hosted a whole lot of fun games and activities that were specially designed for the whole family to bond. The Easter Bunny was also there to play with the children and have breakfast with them. Face painting, booths, games and so much more made this Easter celebration the most exciting event at the area. Parents, bring your kids again next year at the Breakfast with the Easter Bunny event.
