The 2022 Pool Easter Egg Hunt at the Rangely Rec Center was a success with about 45 kids participating. Items were collected for the Rangely School District’s backpack program. WRB Rec and Park would like to extend “a big thank you” to Rangely Auto Parts for donating to the event.
4-H community club members and leaders joined together to help the Meeker Lion’s Club (left) and Rangely ELKS (right) fill Easter eggs for this year’s community scavenger hunts. “We had an incredible turnout of 4-H members and leaders on both ends of the county,” 4-H officials said. “We want to let the kids and leaders know that we at the Extension and 4-H office appreciate their help and the wonderful job they did. Good job in completing a Community Pride service activity.”
