The 6th annual event will be held from 10 am – 1 p.m on Saturday, April 4 at the Town Center.
Free photos with the Easter Bunny will take place on the porch of the Oakland Meeting Hall, 221 N. Arrington St., between 10 and 11:45 am.

The hunt will kick off with infants through four-year-olds at noon, followed by kids ages five through 12 at 12:20 pm. Parents should plan to have their children in place at least five minutes prior to the start time. Children will have a chance to find coveted Golden Eggs, which can be turned in for high-value items.
