Easter Egg Roll: 1977
"Kids screamed, bands played and parents beamed. Even grandfathers like
Jimmy Carter, who hoisted grandson Jason onto his shoulders, enjoyed the
White House Easter egg roll Monday….the President's wife, Rosalynn
figured everyone had a good time. The president? "I think he enjoyed
it, too," she said while her husband pushed through the crowd shaking
hands. Hundreds attended the egg roll on the White House lawn. Parents
came with one or two or a dozen kids in tow, to watch their youngsters
romp, throw eggs, scuffle, cry, and laugh."
