26th Annual Easter Egg Hunt

Driftwood Park in New Brighton will be the site of the 26^th annual Rotary Club Egg Hunt.  The event is sponsored by the New Brighton / Mounds View Rotary Club.  The egg hunt is open to all children ages 1 month to 7 years of age.  Over 5000 plastic eggs filled with 400 pounds of jellybeans wait the egg hunters.  Some eggs will have prize tickets in them, which are redeemed for a variety of treasures.

 

The hunt is divided into 4 age groups; each child has the opportunity to gather candy filled eggs.  The age groups are: 1-24 months, 2-3 years old, 4-5 years old and 6-7 years old.  Please bring a basket or bag in which the children can collect their eggs.

Driftwood Park is located just west of Silver Lake Road on 5^th Street SW in New Brighton.  The Egg Hunt is Saturday, April 4 and begins sharply at 11:30 AM.  It takes the egg hunters only minutes to gather up all the eggs.  So, don’t be a minute late!

 

Parking is available on the street and in the Salem Covenant church parking lot.  There is a small parking area just west of the park.

 

The Rotary Club will be collecting non-perishable food items for the local Ralph Reed Food Shelf.  Please bring what you can for this important cause.

 

The Easter Bunny will take a few minutes of his busy schedule to make an appearance at this year’s hunt.  Bring your camera.
