BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) -- The Easter tradition of the egg hunt is beloved by many children and families. At the Bakersfield Police Activities League, it's done a little different. The egg hunt there gives kids a chance who can't see...to seek. Catalina Ortiz, 13, is hunting for eggs to cel ebrate Easter just like any other kid. "I got six, or probably five or four," she said. Instead of looking really hard with her eyes, she's listening very closely with her ears. Catalina is blind. She says her favorite part is the baskets and face painting. Ortiz and dozens of other kids use their hearing to track down Easter eggs every year at the Bakersfield Police Activities League Center.

"Not only that, but it allows them to make other friends that are like [Alonzo], or lets them have different kind of people around in his life." For Sgt. Juan Orozco it's about seeing the joy in their faces. "We're happy to do this and hope it will continue to grow," said Sgt. Orozco. Orozco says the event makes an impression -- not just on the kids -- but on their parents. "Being able to be a part of their life, show that we care, that the department cares, that the community cares," Orozco said. "Hopefully it shows them that they're appreciated, and allowing us to give a little bit to their kids hopefully makes them feel good as well." ...read more read less
