Cars will be lined up in the parking lot with different carnival games for kids to earn candy-filled eggs. Children with special needs can choose to be included in their age group or join an area designated for them. After the picnic, they’ll have a massive egg hunt for the children. Once they go through several clues they will reach the final destination and receive their prize. The Easter Bunny was also available for photos and for entertainment.
