A few Easter egg hunts spring up
The Easter Bunny will be hippity-hopping through Yamhill County on Saturday, hiding candy-filled eggs and other surprises for children to find in several cities.
Because of continuing pandemic restrictions, though, the rabbit will skip some places this year, as it did in 2020. The usual egg hunts will look different, if they are held at all.
Amity, Carlton and Dayton will host modified events, with representatives of the Easter Bunny delivering the eggs.
Lafayette and Yamhill children will have a chance to fill their baskets during traditional, if socially distanced, egg hunts in city parks.
John Wallwork will be the new principal at SHS in the fall.
The Alpine School District has selected John Wallwork as the new principal at Skyridge High School. At the end of this school year, Principal Dr. Joel Perkins will assume responsibilities in administration at the District.
Wallwork has spent 20 years in education as a teacher, assistant principal, and the last eight years as principal of Chiawana High School in Pasco, Washington.
Wallwork was born in Auckland, New Zealand. His parents are of Samoan descent. His parents divorced, and he lived with his grandparents in Samoa before moving with his mother to Hawaii. After several years in Hawaii, he moved with his mother to Shelton, Washington, where he attended elementary, junior high and high school.
