Easter Egg Roll Tickets To Go Online

WASHINGTON (AP) - For the first time, the White House will
distribute tickets online for the Easter Egg Roll.
The White House said Monday that tickets for the April 13 event
will be available online so that more children and families have a
chance to participate in the annual tradition on the South Lawn.
That means no more standing in line for tickets the weekend
before the event.
Starting Thursday, additional information about the process will
be available at www.whitehouse.gov/eastereggroll.
This year's theme, "Let's go play," is meant to encourage
young people to lead healthy, active lives.
The South Lawn will be opened to children 10 and under, and
their families, to enjoy sports, storytelling and live musical
performances as well as the egg roll.
