The 6th Annual Grand Avenue Egg Hunt is happening on Saturday, April 4 promptly at 2:00!
No foolin…..
This downtown Egg Hunt began with a few business owners, That’s Adorable included, to thank and give back to their customers and consignors. It has now grown to include 175 kids last year and a long list of downtown Eau Claire businesses! The Easter bunny visits and you can snap photos.
All this fun takes place despite the Wisconsin weather at Freedom Park on the corner of 1st and Grand Avenue.
At 5 minutes until 2:00, the organizers, count the number of kids age 12 and under and then, guess what, divide that number by the amount of eggs we were able to stuff from the amazing downtown business donations and BAM – the # of eggs you can retrieve is announced. Yes, I use the math I learned in school!
For this event to happen, we really rely on parents being fair and making sure their kids only take the amount of designated eggs, so that all kids get to participate.
Don’t grab your designated # of eggs too fast, we always have an elusive golden egg and one child will win an amazing Easter basket full of goodies. We collect the eggs to recycle and provide you with a packet of flyers and coupons from the places that help make this happen!
Remember to shop small, shop local and support those little stores downtown if you want these types of things to still happen next year.
We had 175 kids in 2014, not counting all the grown-up types joining them!
This family stopped by the 2014 egg hunt!
