Updates for October 2024

Easter egg hunts are back! We've started updating the info for this year. Unfortunately MOST wait until the last minute (often just a week before) to publish their dates, times and details. We're updating their information daily as it comes in. We expect pages to be up to date by mid-March.

When we CONFIRM an event for 2024, the date will be highlighted in pink, like this passage to make them easy to find as you scroll down the page.
Hunts that were held in the past year or 2 but not yet confirmed for this year are in orange.
The ones NOT in either orange or pink are more dubious - held in the past but not confirmed in the past few years, so just our best guess! These you must call or email to confirm before you go.

U-Pick Farms; You may also want to go to a local farm to Pick Your Own fruit and vegetables; strawberries start very soon in most areas! Farms will be open !
Children's Consignment Sales: Looking to save money on children's clothes, toys, books, etc, find a local children's consignment sale, also often held by churches in the Spring and Fall, click here!
Find a fun factory tour here - which is also fun to do on a Road trip or a Camping trip - Both websites help you find free and low-cost, but fun, interesting things to do and see!

ALWAYS click the links to check date and time with the event's own website, as there are often last minute cancellations, postponements or changes to locations due to weather (like heavy rains) or logistical problems, just click on the link to the event's website and (in most cases), you want to click on the "events" link or "calendar" link on their website. Or use their site search for "Easter". Do let them know you found them here, so they will update us next year. Since many egg hunts do not publish the current year's dates until the very last minute, or simply never respond to email, we may not get their current information, which is why we have links to their websites, Facebook pages and calendars. Besides egg hunts, there are also Easter breakfasts and brunches and Easter parades to watch!

Preschool Area & Special Needs Area: Our preschool area & special needs area will be open for the entire event from 11:00a-1:00p. For these kids, it’s not a “dash,” but a relaxed stroll with their parents. This means no pushing, no shoving, no getting separated from your kids. And every child gets eggs! The areas will be divided into many egg lanes where children and parents enter together whenever they are ready. They can take their time, happily gathering their allotted 10 candy-filled eggs. Then exit the area so they can enjoy the rest of the activities. This will help everyone enjoy a safe and fun-filled Easter Holiday weekend together! * Please note this only for the preschool and special needs areas. Start times for the exciting dash for eggs for all other age groups will be staggered by age group starting at 11:30a. There will be a non-perishable Food Drive during the Easter Egg Dash. Food collected will be distributed by The Bridge Food Pantry, benefiting needy families in our community.
