Join us for an EGG-citing Easter Eggstravaganza on Saturday, March 28, at E. Carroll Joyner Park, 701 Harris Road.
Hop on over to the Bunny Trail any time between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. to "poach" your eggs.
And guess what? The Easter Bunny and a Rose Fairy will be making a special appearance to spread Easter cheer! Bring your cameras and get ready for some EGG-STRA special moments.

Here are some important tips to "Know Before You Go"!
BUNNY TRAIL: Instead of an egg hunt, we are again featuring our Bunny Trail! Join us any time between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. to "poach" your eggs. You have three hours to hop in and collect your eggs! Bring your own basket to collect eggs.
EGGS: Make sure to open your easter eggs before you leave the event to see if you won a prize. Prizes can be picked up at the Town tent in the Joyner Park Amphitheater
ACTIVITIES: A DJ will be pumping out fun tunes while a giant soap bubble artist and hula hoopers keep you entertained. The kiddos can unleash their creativity with an Easter-themed craft and visit our sponsor exhibits and food trucks. In addition to our free activities, new this year we will offer the opportunity for paid face-painting. Prices will range from $5-$10.
EGG-CEPTIONAL ZONE: An Egg-ceptional Zone will cater to children with disabilities and their families from 9:30 - 10 a.m. in the Performance Garden beside the historic barns. The purpose of this zone is to provide a fun, safe, family-friendly environment that allows children who may have difficulty participating in a traditional event the opportunity to pick up Easter eggs at their own pace.
SPECIAL GUESTS: The Easter Bunny will be stationed in the field near the historic barns, ready to strike a pose. Additionally, a roaming “Rose Fairy” will be sure to get you in the Spring spirit. Bring your cameras to capture all the EGG-STRA special moments!
Parking: We will have staff on site to assist with parking. Traffic WILL be heavy, please remain patient. Vehicles will be routed through the park via one entrance and one exit – event map with more details coming soon.
WALKING TO JOYNER: If you're walking to Joyner Park from neighboring communities, make sure to scan the QR code on the sign at your park entrance to be directed to the website and event map.
