45th Year for Annual Elite Bunny Hunt

The Dunmore Lions and Rotary Clubs, Dunmore Police and Fire Departments once again combined efforts to hold the annual Elite Bunny Hunt on Saturday, April 16, at St. Anthony’s Playground and Fieldhouse.

The event is in its 45th year of service to the children of Dunmore and surrounding areas. Over 750 Easter bags featuring large and small chocolate bunnies and an assortment of candy eggs were distributed. There were Easter basket raffles and photos with the Easter bunny for children 11 and younger.

Additionally, a fundraiser was held during the event in order to donate to the war effort in Ukraine.

Showing Appreciation for Our Dunmore Firefighters

The Dunmore Lions and Rotary Clubs joined together to provide an appreciation luncheon for the members of the Dunmore Fire Department for their gallant service in our community in these troubling times.

These firefighters exemplify the courageous conduct required of the Fire Department and continuously demonstrate readiness, performance, and excellence at all times, particularly during the Covid pandemic.
