Join us for an EGG-citing Easter Eggstravaganza on Saturday, March 28, at E. Carroll Joyner Park, 701 Harris Road.
Hop on over to the Bunny Trail any time between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. to "poach" your eggs.
And guess what? The Easter Bunny and a Rose Fairy will be making a special appearance to spread Easter cheer! Bring your cameras and get ready for some EGG-STRA special moments.
Let's make this Easter a memory to cherish! Don't forget to tag us in your photos and use the hashtags #WFPRCR and #TOWFeggstravaganza
Egg-ceptional Zone
An Egg-ceptional Zone will cater to children with disabilities and their families from 9:30-10 a.m. The purpose of this zone is to provide a fun, safe, family-friendly environment that allows children who may have difficulty participating in a traditional egg hunt the opportunity to pick up Easter eggs at their own pace. Bring a buddy to help if needed.
The Egg-ceptional Zone will be in the Performance Garden beside the historic barns.

- Activities: A DJ will be pumping out fun tunes while a giant soap bubble artist and hula hoopers keep you entertained. The kiddos can unleash their creativity with an Easter-themed craft and visit our sponsor exhibits and food trucks. In addition to our free activities, new this year we will offer the opportunity for paid face-painting. Prices will range from $5-$10.
