Family memories were made on the Saturday before Easter at the Church of Scientology Mission of the Foothills in Montrose. Children enjoyed crafts and Easter egg hunts, photos were taken with the Easter Bunny and, most of all, petting the real live bunnies was a big hit!  

“We love the Easter event – we come every year; it’s one of our favorites,” said Melissa Burgess of Montrose. “They do such a wonderful job – from the Easter Bunny, egg hunt, everything! We love it and won’t miss it!”

Another foothills resident, Kelsea Sakamoto who also brings her family every year, said, “It’s such a great community event and brings so many kids together in a warm, safe, friendly environment. My kids look forward to it every year!”

“We love hosting our free family activities for the community, both Easter – this is our fourth year – and our Halloween Haunted House – since 2013,” said Mission Executive Director Stacy Kitchens. “Everyone has such a good time.”
