The cold temperatures outside did not stop Government House and the Easter Bunny from celebrating Easter weekend.
"What we do is we hide a bunch of colored plastic eggs around the whole building and the kids get a little basket and go find as many as they can,” said Chad Devert, assistant manager of collections and exhibits at Government House. “When they get back to the front they're given a treat and sent on their way and they have a blast doing it.”
The special event geared towards children is usually held outdoors in the Edwardian Gardens, but was moved indoors due to the recent frigid temperatures and snowfall.
Government House has held a traditional Easter egg hunt since 2015.
Over 900 people participated in the event this year and those on the hunt had fun while touring the building.
