CITY-WIDE EASTER EGG HUNT

 Hippity-Hop on down to the City of Monterey’s 36th Annual Easter Egg Hunt to be held Saturday, March 22 at Frank E. Sollecito, Jr. Ballpark next to Dennis the Menace Park. Children, tots through third grade, are invited to take part in the Easter Egg-citement festivities co-sponsored by KWAV Radio and the City of Monterey Recreation & Community Services Department. The hunt begins promptly at 10:00 a.m. Over seven thousand eggs will be hidden; one hundred of the eggs have been deemed as “prize” eggs. Finders of the prize eggs will receive a free Easter basket. The Easter Bunny will be there to greet everyone.

There will be four designated hunt areas: 1) age two and under (tots); 2) Preschool; 3) Kindergarten to first grade; and 4) second to third grade. Parents will not be allowed in the hunt areas. Children are encouraged to bring their own containers to collect eggs. Should it rain, the Hunt will be canceled and the eggs will be distributed to the children by the Easter Bunny at the Monterey Youth Center. Come early, parking is limited! For further information, please call the Monterey Recreation & Community Services Department at 646-3866.
