John and Jeannie Miller's
6th Annual Fish Fry and Easter Egg Hunt
Over the years, many of us have enjoyed taking our kids or grandkids - or just ourselves - to John and Jeannie Miller's Fish Fry and Easter Egg Hunt, on the Saturday before Easter. In fact, when John was our Commodore in 2008, the Egg Hunt was held as an official Boat Club event.
Formerly on Bayview's M Dock, the Millers have now moved to Chandler's Landing Marina. But, their tradition continues, on Saturday afternoon, April 23.
Jeannie says there's a great spot next to the Chandler's ships store for the egg hunt and party, and invites everyone to come enjoy the food, fellowship, and the spectacle of all the little ones dashing about, in pursuit of candy and prize eggs. No child ever leaves without a prize.
Schedule:
12:00 Noon - A dinner of fried fish, barbeque, and an always-amazing spread of sides and desserts, will be served.
2:00 PM - it's time for the egg hunt!
