Here are the top stories today in East Hampton:

1. The Easter bunny is hopping into town on April 17 and hiding eggs for East End children who are eager to hunt for them. There are three events to choose from, here is a list of provided by Dan's Papers. (Dan's Papers)
2. You may be aware, Dan's Papers features a local artist on its cover, this week Dan's cover artist is Megan Euell. Euell's painting, 'Montauk Lighthouse' is as realistic as in viewing it in person. She painted the picture from the vantage point at Camp Hero. It is a must see! (Dan's Papers)
3. Southampton wants to buy a Main Street commercial property — 2 Main St., in Sag Harbor. Their intention is not to build it up, but rather, to knock it down and add the property to the John Steinbeck Waterfront Park. (Subscription: 27east.com)
