Those looking for a meal on Easter Sunday, but maybe didn’t want the mess, headed over to The Casino at Lakemont Park in Altoona.

The Easter buffet is an event held annually, so it’s part of a community tradition.

People like to come out, be in a historic place and enjoy time with family.

We’re told many come back year after year.

“I just had two people walk up to me and say ‘sign me up for next year,'” Doug Simon, owner & executive chef of the Casino at Lakemont Park, said.

This is the 26th year the event has taken place.
