Coming events: New Generation, Weddell-Williams egg hunt, Battle of the Badges, Irish and Italian Parade

Here are upcoming events beginning Thursday:
--The Morgan City Rotary’s annual New Generation event will be at 6 p.m. Thursday at the Morgan City High field house.
The event challenges teams from the parish’s public and private high schools to present plans for civic improvements. Past New Generation ideas have resulted in intergenerational mixers for young people and senior citizens, more recycling receptacles and other civic projects.

The $5 admission includes on entry to the Easter egg hunt, a souvenir photo with the Easter Bunny and a goodie bag. Four start times begin at 11 a.m. for different age groups. Two winners from each age group will win bicycles.
--The annual Battle of the Badges, a horseshoe contest between St. Mary firefighters and law enforcement officers, begins at 9 a.m. Saturday at Kemper Williams.
The winning team will get possession of the traveling trophy now in the hands of the firefighters.
--The Krewe of Dionysus’ Irish and Italian Parade begins at 1 p.m. Saturday at Second and Everett and ends at Second and Belanger. This is a walking parade, although golf cars are allowed. The entry fee is $20.
There will be a Best Dress judging at noon. Walkers and riders must be 21 to participate.
