Event organizer Oksana Seniv was pleased with the strong turnout. She said there were mixed feelings going into the upcoming holiday. She said the Ukrainian community would be gathering together to mark the occasion, along with a Ukrainian Orthodox priest who will be coming in from Sydney, N.S. to deliver an Easter blessing.
