By Patty Putts for Mangy Coyote Media The Easter Bunny was busy hiding eggs throughout Riverside that aided in the disc golf action, each prize containing a mulligan for use at the Inaugural Patty Putts Easter Eggstravaganza on April 8 in Swift Current. The teams were out shooting low despite warm, breezy afternoon conditions that produced wet footing at Riverside Park as the 2023 winter snowpack dissipated.
