The 1982 White House Easter Egg Roll

In this photograph, taken by National Geographic photographer Dave Johnson on April 12, 1982, children participate in an Easter egg rolling contest during the White House Easter Egg Roll. While egg rolling games have been part of the White House Easter Egg Roll since it was first held in 1878, egg roll racing was added to the event in 1974 by First Lady Pat Nixon.
