Once again, it’s time for kids to stock up their baskets at the 33rd City-Wide Easter Egg Hunt, on Saturday, April 16.
This free event is open to those ages 3 to 11 and will be held at the Otis M. Andrews Sports Complex at 2402, E. Cherry St., in Plant City.
The egg hunt will begin at 10 a.m. and participants are asked to bring their own baskets.
The youth will be divided into the following age groups: 3-4; 5-6; 7-8; 9-11.
Two special golden eggs will be hidden in each egg nest, and the finders will be able to turn them in for a large Easter basket after the hunt.
Each nest has group leaders who will assist the youth and provide eggs to those with none.
No adults are allowed in the nest. Only youth participants and event staff are allowed in the nest during the hunt.
Children should be instructed to meet parents back at the nest perimeter after the hunt.
If you have children in multiple nests, lost children will be escorted to the stage area if not picked up after the hunt.
Pre-hunt entertainment starts at 10 a.m. and activities after the hunt will be available with a $5 bunny band.
Such amenities include balloon art, a trackless train ride, air brushing, inflatables, and a chance to take a photo with the Easter bunny.
And those age 12 and under can receive a free hot dog and drink courtesy of the Plant City Optimist Club.
All youth are ensured to receive eggs.
