Posted

OREGON – Easter is coming up fast and the Oregon Park District is excited to offer two free events to celebrate.

Are you too old for the traditional Easter Egg Hunt, but you still want to have some fun? This is your chance with the Flashlight Easter Egg Hunt! Join the Easter Bunny for this exciting Egg Hunt. Bring your flashlight and something to collect your eggs in. Come join the fun and try to find the hidden eggs before they are all gone.

The hunt area will be divided into a 5th and 6th grade zone and a 7th and 8th grade zone. The hunt will be held Friday, March 30 at 7:45 p.m. at Park West. Enjoy the pre-hunt activities, which begin at 7:30 p.m., while it gets good and dark.  Plastic eggs will be collected following the hunt, but prizes are yours to keep.

Candy, fun and hidden treasures are all part of the 41st Annual Easter Egg Hunt. Come early to see the Easter Bunny and find a parking space at Park West. There are prizes in each age group - Preschool through 4th grade. Bring your Easter Basket to put your Easter surprises in and join the holiday fun (rain or shine) with family and friends. The hunt will be held Saturday, March 31 at 10 a.m. sharp at Park West.
