WHAT TIME WILL THE EGG HUNT START?
Gates open to the event at 9:00am and close at 4:00pm. The Easter Egg Hunt Field is open from 9:00am to 5pm. We do not do a count down as the field is open for hunting at your leisure and we replenish eggs throughout the day. This allows for a less chaotic and more enjoyable event. Children may collect as many eggs as they like. They then return them to our Prize Redemption Station to receive their Easter goodie bag. This ensures every child gets the same awesome gift regardless of the number of eggs they collect.
WHEN ARE PICTURES WITH THE EASTER BUNNY?
The Easter Bunny makes appearances hourly throughout the day. He can usually be located by the Sand Pit or near the Easter Basket Chair. Typically he’ll spend 30 minutes visiting with kids and then take a quick break before returning for more fun. We do not offer formal pictures so be sure to bring your camera to capture a precious memory to treasure.
