Gather Your Peeps for an Eggciting Spring Tradition

Tips to prepare for this season’s local egg hunts

Egg hunts are one of the most well-recognized and nostalgic childhood activities associated with spring. Whether you participate in a community hunt or host one yourself, nothing beats the satisfying feeling of being the one who finds the most eggs.

Hunt Tips

1. Arrive early. Thousands of eggs will be hidden in the fields and event spaces, so arrive on time to ensure you’re ready for the hunt. Start times are prompt.

2. Dress for the weather (for outdoor events). Egg hunts will be held rain or shine. Pack an umbrella or a poncho in case there is rain.

3. Bring your basket(s)! Baskets will not be provided, so bring your own basket to collect the most eggs.

4. Bring a device to capture the fun throughout the event! Take pictures and videos and be sure to tag Westerville’s social media channels for a chance to be featured on one of the City’s pages. @tellwesterville, @WestervillePark, @CityofWesterville

5. Have fun! Remember the purpose of the event is to enjoy the festivities with fellow community members. To ensure the safety of participants of all ages, parents of children ages 4 years and older are encouraged to view the event from designated areas.
