VICTORY Garden Allotments, Rawdon, had their annual Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday.

The rather odd school holiday timings made it rather difficult to organise but Charlotte Waldron (a plot-holders) stepped in at very short notice to organise the event, and what a splendid job she did.

What a glorious day it was and what great fun the children had.

With it being so hot it was not possible to hide all the eggs, so to avoid having melted puddles of chocolate Charlotte placed foam eggs and stickers in their place which the children found following the clues and finally exchanging the stickers for really chocolate eggs kept in a cool bag.

The next event is the Summer BBQ in July.

It is also the Allotment Site centenary year and the site will open as part of the Heritage Open Days on September 28 and 29.
