The Easter Bunny is expected to arrive a day early this year, hiding colorful eggs on the lawn around Kentwood City Hall.
The City’s annual hunt will take place rain or shine on March 31 at 10 a.m. at the Kentwood City Hall lawn. Children and families are invited to attend this free event, which will offer candy and prizes to all.
“Easter egg hunts are a time-honored tradition with many families,” said Laura Barbrick of Kentwood’s Parks and Recreation Department. “At the City of Kentwood, we love to be a part of these traditions. We are crossing our fingers for great spring weather at this year’s hunt.”
Thousands of eggs will be hidden in the grass around Kentwood City Hall. Kids are invited to collect the eggs, which can be redeemed for candy. A few special eggs will contain a certificate that is redeemed for special prizes.
There will also be a special appearance by the Easter Bunny, who will be available to take photos with families. Those attending are asked to bring their own bags to collect their eggs.
The event is free and open to the public. Information is available www.kentwood.us.
