Summary

The AMVETS Post 46 Ladies Auxiliary announced an Easter egg hunt for April 15, 2006, at Beaver Island Community School. The notice invited children to bring baskets or bags for the eggs and treats. The May issue reports a day-before- Easter hunt near Holy Cross Church and the school, with three starting lines and children scrambling for treats; it does not identify whether this is the same event or a separate Easter activity.

Evidence limits

The April source is an advance community-event notice. The May source reports an outcome but does not establish attendance, the number of eggs, organizer identity, or whether the two notices describe the same activity.
