Queens Chronicle - Affinity Health Plan

C M EQ/SE page 39 Y K
Thousands came from throughout the city and
Long Island on Saturday to continue an Easter
tradition with the 12th annual Easter egg hunt
sponsored by City Councilman Leroy Comrie (DS. Albans) and Affinity Heath Plan.
The day featured rides, carnival games and live
musical performances. There also were free
Healthplex dental screenings for children.
The New York Knicks Groove truck also presented opportunities for area free-throw and
three-point shot experts to show their scoring and
rebounding skills.
The event was hosted by radio personality Bob
Lee of WBLS Radio.
But the true stars of the event were the Easter
bunny and Rex, the Dalmation, who serves as
Affinity’s mascot. They gave out eggs with holiday
Q
surprises to all the children.
Kids of all ages lines up for the Flying Dragon ride.

the children in attendance.
