SUMMARY:Wilton Egg Hunt at Merwin Meadows
DESCRIPTION:Wilton’s Favorite Easter Tradition is Back!\n\n\nWilton Community Easter Egg Hunt\, hosted by Wilton Collective in collaboration with Wilton Moms Club\, will be on Sunday\, Mar. 29\, at 11:30 a.m at Merwin Meadows Bring your baskets and enjoy a joyful spring morning with our amazing community!\n\n\nEgg Hunt begins: 11:45 a.m.\nTo make sure everyone has fun\, the egg hunt will be divided into three age groups:\n• 0–2 years\n• 3–6 years\n• 7 years and up\n\n\nWhat to Expect:\nSince there is no RSVP count\, it’s hard to know exactly how many eggs each child will collect — but don’t worry! There are prepared eggs\, and every child will go home with something special.\nThe goal of the day is simple: have fun\, connect with other families\, and enjoy this special time together.\n\n\nSpecial Guest:\nThey’re thrilled to welcome The Easter Bunny for photo opportunities and extra fun for the kids!\nWant to make the experience even more magical? You can purchase a Golden Egg (10 inches tall) filled with yummy treats and surprises — personally delivered by the Easter Bunny!\n\n \n\n\nThinking of Donating Eggs?\nThat’s wonderful! If you’d like to contribute eggs\, please send us a quick message and we’ll coordinate with you.\nPlease keep donations simple\, as we can’t guarantee children will receive the exact eggs they donated.\n\n\nA Few Friendly Reminders:• Please be mindful of allergies when donating treats\n• Be patient during transitions between age groups\n• Most importantly — have fun\, be kind\, and enjoy the moment!\n\n\nFind out more about Wilton Collective or more community events @wiltoncollective \n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...

SUMMARY:Trees for Trout — Tree Ecocycling with Trout Unlimited
DESCRIPTION:Trees for Trout is back in Wilton!\n\n\nConsider “eco-cycling” your tree with Trout Unlimited to help improve the health of our local rivers! Each year\, millions of Christmas trees are simply discarded after the holidays\, but can go to good use providing habitat for a number of species.\n\n\nTU volunteers will happily turn your natural tree into important habitat for trout in the Norwalk River. Your tree will join others in helping stabilize stream-banks\, reduce erosion and create refuge habitat for juvenile trout and other aquatic life during projects all summer long.\n\n\nCollection will take place on both Saturday\, Jan. 3 and Saturday\, Jan. 10 at Merwin Meadows Park from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. both days. Just drive up with your tree and our volunteers will take care of the rest.\n\n\nSuggested donation is $10\n\n \n\n\nFriendly reminder: natural trees only — synthetic trees or trees with tinsel or flocking cannot be accepted.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...

SUMMARY:5K Run and Walk to Benefit Education in India
DESCRIPTION:Education is a central Wilton topic–most usually with a very local focus. But now\, one organization with ties to more remote areas in Asia is devoting some of that focus to education overseas.\n\n\nA local\, CT chapter of an organization called Ekal Vidyalaya\, made up of families with ties to India\, is organizing a fundraising effort to continue their support of growing education in rural and tribal Indian communities. Ekal Vidyalaya is a movement focused on creating and growing one-teacher schools in remote Indian villages to bring education to all children in the country. Since starting in 1986\, Ekal has become the largest grassroots level non-governmental education and development movement operating in rural India.\n\n\nEkal Vidyalaya is organizing 5K Run and Walk on Sunday\, Sept. 16 in Merwin Meadows\, starting at 9 a.m.\, to raise funds to continue their work. Registration to take part in the 5K costs $20 per adult\, $10 per child.\n\n\nThe CT chapter of Ekal was started in 2010. That year the group raised funds for 100 schools and has continued to grow 30% every year\, contributing a total of 500+ schools by 2018. There are approximately 50 families in Fairfield County who have been involved in the local effort. 500 schools are part of the 75\,000 schools created by the global effort\, impacting more than 2 million students.\n\n\nAccording to the Ekal website\, the movement aims to help eradicate illiteracy from rural and tribal India\, following a philosophy of rural development based on criteria of equality and inclusiveness across all sections of society.\n\n \n\n\nEkal says each school is managed and run for just $365 a year. The money funds teachers more than physical infrastructure or buildings. It hires and trains teachers\, and aims to utilize physical space free of cost. The website says that Ekal’s administrative costs are less than 10% of contributions and the majority of the organization’s workforce is volunteer.\n\n\nFor more information\, contact organizers via email or visit the chapter’s Facebook page.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...
