Easter Egg Hunt
​
Saturday, April 8 @ 10am

A special visit from the Easter Bunny!
​Bring the kids down to the park where they will search for candy filled Easter eggs which are hidden all over the grassy area in front of the building.  The hunt is divided into 2 groups so the little ones search one area and the older kids search another.  The Easter bunny will also arrive to visit with the kids.
​
Candy donations are appreciated to make this event happen. They should be small enough to fit in plastic egg.  Volunteers are also needed to help the Easter Bunny hide eggs!​
