Kids will have the opportunity to hear the Easter story told by actors representing Bible characters. If you’re late, you may be out of luck; it doesn’t take long for kids racing around to scoop up all the candy-filled eggs.
“The Girl Scouts volunteered to help us plant the eggs, and they were a big help”, TVRPD District Manager LeAnn Williams said. Also includes craft booths and games.
“The event’s completely free”, said Evans. Egg hunt is for children ages 10 and younger. Most events take place at the Metazoo hillside.
Pam Parrish brought her 6-year-old granddaughter, Faith, to the Easter egg hunt for the first time, along with her infant son Quincy, but she and her husband are hardly newcomers, as they brought their eldest daughter to the event year after year as a child. Everyone who takes part will get an egg as well as a prize donated by the community.
Trains will depart from the Rusk Depot at 11:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. daily on Friday and Saturday. Kids and parents alike braved the elements anyway, as the youngsters in the egg hunt scrambled into marked circles on the field where multi-colored plastic eggs lay waiting to be discovered. She hinted that some of the event’s special eggs will win egg hunters prizes such as pre-filled Easter baskets, chocolate bunnies and goody bags.
