COMMUNITY NEWS
- ➤ Young’s Jersey Dairy announced its 42nd Annual Easter Egg Hunt on April 20 will use plastic eggs instead of more than 10,000 hard-boiled eggs due to soaring egg prices, and each egg will hold a free ride ticket on Cowtherine’s Carousel while donating $1,500 each to Second Harvest Food Bank and The Foodbank. The dairy said it will return to hard-boiled eggs in 2026 and will hold the event at its Yellow Springs farm (6880 Springfield-Xenia Road) starting at 2 p.m. (with timed entries for different age groups).
