Childhood Cancer Foundation sponsored a Spring Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 12, 2014 at the Yucaipa Community Park for children who have cancer and their families. Over 200 participants joined in the Spring bash. A special guest, the Easter Bunny, was at the park with over 6,000 stuffed plastic eggs and Easter baskets for all the children. The Easter Bunny lead the children in a variety of group games and dances that included the “Hokey Pokey.” Cardenas Markets Catering sponsored the food for the event. Donors also included the Art Institute of California – Inland Empire, the Medina Family, Pet Partners, DJ Toby Bates, George & Sharon Apkner, Arlene Barton & Auxiliary Unit #777, Ramrod Senior Center, National Charity League, Lisa Bates & Friends, Elena Klopfer, Air Force Security Forces, Valerie Villegas, and the Brierty Family. Families reunited with other families that have gone through similar circumstances while the kids enjoyed a day of Spring fun. Every smile makes all our hard work worth it. You can’t help but smile yourself when you see the patients and their siblings having a blast. All of our events are made possible through the countless support of our volunteers.
