Here are the top three stories today in Dunedin:

1. Watch for the Easter bunny carting downtown Dunedin TODAY starting around 5:30 PM! The bunny will stop to take photos in Pioneer Park, head down by the marina and Huntley Avenue. Make sure to wave hello and get some pictures before Easter Sunday! Check the Dunedin Goes Carting Facebook page to get updates on the bunny's location. (Facebook)
2. Soggy Bottom Brewing Co. will celebrate its five-year anniversary TODAY with various events throughout the day starting at 2:00 PM. Events will include a Hatchet Hangout mobile trailer where you can practice your ax-throwing and Mini Beer Olympics between 2:00 and 6:00 PM. Also, Johnny Shelton from America's Got Talent will be live between 6:00 and 10:00 PM! Be sure to stop by for a drink to celebrate with them. (Facebook | Soggy Bottom Brewing Co.)
3. Some lucky Dunedin residents received free gas on Thursday when The Joe Show, featured on 93.3 FLZ, held an epic event at the Shell station at 1625 Main Street. With the help of Achieva Credit Union, they gave listeners thousands of dollars in gas during their Gas For Good event. The radio station revealed "one of the best moments of the day was when Kennedy from Clearwater called in while she was in line to get gas. Unfortunately, she showed up just a little too late and was unable to get gas. THEjoeSHOW hooked her up with a $100 gas card to get her to and from work which she desperately needs." Let's all hope this becomes a growing trend in Pinellas County! (Facebook |933 FLZ)

• The Dunedin Give Back is looking for a 26-inch boy’s bike for a San Jose Elementary School student in need. He is a new 5th grader, and it's tough to make that new school transition at the end of the school year. The principal, Mrs. Brown, had an idea to provide him with a bike to help him overcome some of his obstacles and also give him a greater sense of belonging here. If you can help, see the full post for more information. (Facebook)
