Brightly coloured eggs peppered the ground around the Bouchie Lake Community Hall on Easter Sunday for a gnome and egg hunt.

Dozens of kids collected eggs and turned them in at the hall for a plush animal and a goody bag of candy.

Inside the hall, there were arts and crafts and a concession booth.

The event was run by the Bouchie Lake Community Association.

The Bouchie Lake Hall will be busy at the end of April, when it hosts an open house for the Bouchie-Milburn Neighbourhood Plan on Saturday, April 30.

“It will be great to have an opportunity to engage face-to-face with the community again at the open house on Saturday, April 30th,” Cariboo Regional District (CRD) Director Barbara Bachmeier said in a news release.

“It is important that a neighbourhood plan is developed by residents who provide input on priorities, concerns, and opportunities for the future.”

Bachmeier will be joined at the open house by the CRD’s Manager of Planning Services, Nigel Whitehead. The plan and a community survey is available online at cariboord.ca/bmnp.
