1. Apr 2, Maine Easter Events 2015
By this time of year, who doesn't look forward to
the sight of a
floppy-eared
Easter Bunny! Especially in Maine, where after a long winter his
presence is such a sure sign that Spring has arrived! And since the
Bunny
will be hopping around at many of the Maine
Easter events for 2015, finding him should not be
difficult!
To celebrate the special holiday, there of course
will be lots of
Easter Egg
Hunts
in Maine...
...an Easter Parade, and entertainment for
children with both outdoor and indoor activities and events.
Although Easter often brings to mind

2. images of
flowers and Easter bonnets...
...keep one thing in mind, the date of Easter 2015
is April 5th...
...which means that it will still be cool. Snow on
that date is not unheard of! So, keep
an eye on the forecast to be sure that your kids (and you!) are dressed
warm enough for
the outdoor events.

you have a 2015 Maine Easter Event to share?
