Easter EGGstravaganza 2014!




Greetings Capon Friends!

For only the second time in our 82 year history, we opened our doors early to host an Easter Weekend EGGstravaganza over the April 17-21 holiday. Over 200 guests joined us for four days of family-filled festivities and, quite frankly, we couldn't think of a better way to begin our 2014 season! We so enjoyed seeing all the familiar faces--as well as several welcome new ones too (Easter Bunny included)! 

We thought we’d share with you some of the details from our jam-packed celebration...

Happy April Fool's Day!


Greetings Capon Friends!

It's Ginny here....
Anyone play any good tricks on you today? I remember my mom (Claire Kay) telling me stories about the "pranks" her mother (Virginia Austin) would play on April Fool's Day.  Grandmuzz (my grandmother) had "funny" silverware that would collapse if you tried to eat with it, rubber food and the one thing that would always start my mom laughing til she was in tears: a dribble glass! It had a small slit near the top and when you tilted it up to drink...the water would dribble down your chin!  I guess you had to be there...but it brings a smile to my face, remembering my mom laughing and thinking of the fun my grandmother had.
