“Jim and I invite West Virginians of all ages to join us for this fun-filled celebration of the season,” First Lady Justice said. “The State Capitol is the perfect place for families to gather and enjoy the holiday in a unique and fun way. We look forward to continuing this wonderful tradition, and we hope that this year’s Easter Carnival will be the biggest one yet.”
