Easter Egg Hunt at St. John Park
Join us at St. John Park on April 16th for a HUGE Easter egg hunt. We will be hiding over 1,000 Easter eggs for kids to find. Ages 0-5 will start their hunt at 10:00am, and ages 5-10 will start at 11:00am. The first 35 kids in each age group to sign in will get a free Easter egg bag to collect their eggs. We are so excited to be bringing the Easter egg hunt back to St. John park and we cannot wait to see you there!
