Egg coloring, candy, crafts, a photo with the Easter bunny and a puppet show highlighted North End Against Drug’s annual Easter Party at the Nazzaro Center this past Saturday morning, March 26. Once again sponsored by Mikey ‘Fud” Giannasoli in memory of his mother Florence, the party began at 9:30 am with egg coloring, crafts and a special sitting with the Easter Bunny. Pictures were taken for FREE and are available for pick-up at the center anytime next week. In fact, the puppet show, sponsored by City Councillor Sal LaMattina, which began at 11 am and ran for about an hour, allowed ample time for the pictures to be printed, making them available to take home right on the spot! This annual tradition was once again a well attended party with over 100 families and friends attending this year. Below are some pictures taken with the Easter Bunny.
