Wow! The weather certainly didn’t stop the community from coming out in force! Thank you to everyone that came to the annual Sharon Frazier Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by the Optimist Club of Apple Valley with the support of the Town of Apple Valley. It was so nice to see the fine young men and ladies dressed up for the event and participating in the community event. We saw several Scouts in uniform representing another Optimist Club program. The Frazier family were here and Lyla got some eggs as well! The Optimist Club has been active in supporting youth in Apple Valley since 1968 and we are very pleased with the turnout today. Thank you to everyone that made our event a huge success despite the weather. This is the first time I can remember needing a Lifeguard at the Easter Egg Hunt! 😂

EGG HUNT UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!

Town of Apple Valley Egg Hunt will take place this Saturday, March 30.

Due to the weather, the lanes on the field will not be used, but all vendors will be in the auditorium and age groups will run in the mini gym and the larger gym, both located at James Woody community Center on Navajo. 

Please see below the times and location for each age group. Nothing has changed as far as the kids collecting the eggs and finding the golden eggs for the baskets. 

We are allowing 30 minutes between age groups to allow for one group to come in obtain their eggs, exit and for set up for the next age group.

Location of the egg hunt has only changed from the fields to the gymnasiums at James Woody.

Easter Bunny will also be there so we hope to see you on Saturday!!

Baskets will be claimed in the Auditorium.

There are 7920 stuffed eggs with candy, 18 handmade Easter Baskets (filled to the brim with toys) - 3 for each age group, 200 toy bags for the Easter Bunny to give away and decorated the golden egg that needs to be claimed to get your Easter Basket. Each age group will have three large golden eggs in their Egg Hunt lane. If you find the golden egg come to the Optimist Club Booth at the event to claim your Basket. Though not noted on the flyer for age groups 3/4, 5/6, 7/8 and 9/10 though they will be on the same field, there will be a divider separating the two age groups.

We were happy to welcome Pam Huffman in Media and Community Relations at the Apple Valley Sheriffs station. She is pictured with President Sharon Hartman. We discussed many things including the PAL program.

Grayson Byrdsong, our local contestant made it to the district finals! Go Grayson! Results will be this afternoon.

Optimist Club of Apple Valley, and the Apple Valley Sheriff station believe in the kids of Apple Valley. Next week, officers will start giving 10.00 In-N-Out gift cards to kids they feel are being good citizens. It's great to reward good actions!!

If you are lucky enough to get one please take a photo of you and the officer and post it on the Optimist page!!

We have an extra basket from the Egg Hunt. If someone has the special egg in a plastic bag with a ticket, please contact me on this page. It has to be in the bag it was in and we will be able to confirm if its the right one.

Another great Optimist Club event. President Sharon Hartman has made this her personal program for several years now and always insures an amazing event…

It was a great evening! We got to hear speeches from two very talented and optimistic teens. Thank you everyone for coming out to the Optimist Oratorical. Grayson Byrdsong from Apple Valley High won 🥇 first prize and Jerizza De La Rosa from Serrano High won 🥇 second prize. I am very impressed with these young optimists, they will go far.
