EGG HUNTS SCHEDULED
LAWRENCE -Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department invites you to
participate in its upcoming egg hunts Saturday, Apr. 7.

 

First, the Aquatics Division is holding its annual Underwater
Eggstravaganza. Children may participate in an arts and crafts activity
prior to the egg hunt, in which they'll make a decorative basket for
collecting their eggs during the hunt. Children participating in the
arts and crafts activity need to be pre-registered to attend. The craft
making activity will be held from 12 to 12:30 p.m. with the Underwater
Eggstravaganza beginning at 12:30 p.m. sharp, when eggs will be hunted
for throughout the shallow and deep ends of the pool. There is a maximum
number of eggs each child may collect. 

 

The Underwater Eggstravaganza is open to children ages 2 to 12 years
old. Cost to participate in only the Underwater Eggstravaganza is $3.
Those participating in the arts and crafts activity will be charged an
additional $1.

 

Parks and Recreation's Special Events Division is once again teaming up
with Hy-Vee to host the annual Egg Hunt Eggstravaganza in historic South
Park, Saturday, Apr. 7, from 1 to 3 p.m. The event is free and open to
