Icare annual easter egg hunt

Lakeview Park

ICare's Annual Easter Egg Hunt is back and it’s going to be better than EVER! If it’s your first year with ICare, THIS is the one that everyone talks about! 

 

Amidst a festive scene of decorations, bubble machines, and Easter music ….. 4,000 toy filled eggs will be hidden through Lakeview Park ( AKA “Goose Poop Park”). The child that finds the winning egg with the Golden Rabbit inside wins a HUGE basket worth $100. Be sure to purchase your raffle tickets, because another HUMONGOUS basket worth over $150 will be raffled off immediately after the Hunt (raffle tickets are $2 each or 3 for $5). In addition, the Easter Bunny himself will be present to pass out candy and take photos with your child!

 

In addition, 5 MEGA eggs filled with toys will be hidden throughout the Park!

 

Cost is $6 per child, CASH only. This event is for kids 2-12years old. All proceeds to benefit our shelter animals. Bring your own baskets, buckets, bags or borrow one of our baskets for free.
