Thursday night third- through fifth-graders got a “hop” on the Easter festivities at Opelika’s “Flashlight Egg Hunt” at Moore Stadium. During the event, the Easter Chicken, Bunny and Egg got in some dancing before Opelika Parks and Recreation kicked of the eighth annual evening egg hunt Thursday. Then armed with flashlights and Easter baskets, children searched for treasure.
