The Easter Bunny can make a special stop at your house on the night before Easter (Saturday, April 3) thanks to its helpers Maddy Richards and Raina England.
The two Easter Bunny assistants will hide Easter eggs in your yard.
Here’s how it works.
Maddy and Raina will “lay eggs” in your yard between 7 p.m. an midnight on April 3. You may order any number of eggs from 30 to 100. And, if interested, the two will provide an Easter bucket and a letter from the Easter Bunny.
“You place an order that fits what you need and message us with any customizations. It’s that simple,” says Maddy.
Ada High School will hold its 115th Interclass contest at 7 p.m., Friday, March 19.
Check the Ada Bulldogs Facebook tonight for the link to watch.
Interclass has been an Ada tradition that is unique to the community. It started in 1907 when Superintendent C.H. Freedman proposed an academic competition between the 10th, 11th and 12th grades.
Interclass celebrates the written and spoken word. Students compete in the areas of essay writing, poetry, short story, and dramatic reading. In each category, one winner has been chosen from each grade after an internal competition within the classes.
