It had been a while -- 5 years to be exact -- since we had a "Chubby Bunny" competition 🐰 This year, 4 brave souls tackled the challenge. Congrats to Brandi C., one of our CILA Direct Support Professionals who successfully beat out her coworkers (Alexus, Andrea, and Cari) with 12 marshmallows 🐰 Here are screenshots of her competitors and the winning video!

9,550 eggs. 55 dog eggs. 40 cat eggs. 35 different egg-stuffing volunteers. 80 hours of egg stuffing. 10 delivery duos. 30.5 hours on the road. 518 miles on the bunny trail. WHAT A YEAR! Thank you to Corteva Agriscience - Princeton for encouraging volunteer hours and loaning us some employees. We appreciate Financial Plus Credit Union - Peru doing the same! Additional volunteers came from the Tiskilwa Community Church youth group, Ohio Girl Scout Troop #4236, Bureau County Senior Center, and numerous friends and family members! We were egg-cited to have Heartland Bank and Trust Company - Henry and Princeton branches and Heartland Auto Body as financial sponsors, as well as Kaye Pearson requesting an action team through Steven Becker - Thrivent. Finally, THANK YOU to everyone who supported our "Egg My Yard" fundraiser this year with orders! Here are a few of E. Bunny's helpers who took a minute for some selfies. See you in 2027 🐰🐰🐰

Just a reminder . . . if you ordered eggs to be picked up, they must be picked up TODAY by 4:30 p.m. If you're running a tad late, please contact Mandi at (815) 875-4548 Ext. 223 and she may be able to hang out for a short bit.

Also, if you have not paid for your eggs, they will NOT be delivered if payment is not received by 4:30 p.m. today. Emails and messages have been left for those parties. We'd hate for some little ones to miss out, so if you did not get a confirmation email from us that payment was received (you would not have received an email if you paid by debit/credit card), contact Mandi at the number above.

THANK YOU!

They wrapped up the last of 9,550 eggs 🐰 In case you wondered how many eggs that is . . . there are 25 to a bag, and this is all of them. E. Bunny and her helpers are going to be VERY busy on Saturday night 🐰 THANK YOU to everyone who supported our fundraiser this year! Special thanks to our sponsors: Heartland Bank and Trust Company in Princeton, Heartland Auto Body, and Heartland Bank and Trust Company in Henry.
