SOME 500 HUNDRED egg hunters of all ages eagerly await the opening of the gates at the Eddy Farm’s Easter Egg Hunt on
Sunday. A master of ceremonies climbed atop a tall ladder to thank the many volunteers who helped fill 7,000 plastic eggs with candy
— including five golden eggs — and hid them around the Middlebury farm’s fields. The Easter Bunny made an appearance, too.

MIDDLEBURY UNION HIGH School senior Jae Davis races past a Rice player and lunges for the
disc during a Tiger Ultimate match in Middlebury on April 13. A first-year player with the team, Davis
did not make this particular catch, but he must have caught at least five in the end zone. Tied 14-14
as time ran out, Middlebury lost a heartbreaker by one goal in overtime.

lounging for at least a couple days.

SOME PEOPLE THINK there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but this photo shows proof
that the celestial guide really points to a Vermont farm — in this case, a farm on Route 73 in Orwell
where Keith Tifft milks goats.
