Egg-a-Palooza is an annual event during which Youth Crew members fill each egg with a piece of candy and a positive message. Eight local and area schools participated. Tyler Morton, Juvenile Services prevention advocate, said “this is a way to celebrate Easter and provide a bit of positive reinforcement as we come upon the final weeks of school.”
