Easter eggs sprinkle courthouse lawn

Luverne Area Chamber volunteers spent five hours filling 1,500 brightly colored plastic eggs for Saturday morning’s Easter egg hunt on the lawn of the Courthouse Square. The event attracted roughly 100 children who filled baskets, pails and bags with the eggs that contained candy and stickers. The mild temperature and sunny skies were ideal egg-hunting weather for the activity sponsored by Security Savings Bank, Sunshine Foods and funds from February’s fishing derby.
