32nd Annual Easter Egg Hunt Sponsored By Wells Fargo

Auburn, Ala. - Auburn Parks and Recreation presents the 32nd Annual Easter Egg Hunt, sponsored by Wells Fargo, on Saturday, March 30 at 11 a.m. at Kiesel Park. Children ages 12 and under are invited to join us for this FREE community event featuring more than 35,000 eggs hidden over a four acre area. Visit Auburn Parks and Recreation online at www.auburnalabama.org/parks to download a map of the hunting ground and activities going on throughout the morning.

The hunt features four separate hunting grounds divided by age groups: 3 & under, 4 - 6 yrs, 7 - 9 yrs, and 10 - 12 yrs. All hunts will be held simultaneously and begin promptly at 11:15 a.m. Kids, don't miss your chance to find one of several Golden Eggs, including a $25 Visa gift card prize egg and a Wells Fargo stuffed pony for each age group, all courtesy of Wells Fargo!

In addition to the egg hunt, attendees can enjoy music from Van Riggs with the 97.7 Kicker FM morning show and free soft drinks and balloons, courtesy of Wells Fargo. Don't forget your cameras for a chance to have your picture taken with the Easter Bunny! The Kiwanis Club of Greater Auburn will be selling hot dogs and hamburgers, so be sure to bring a blanket and enjoy a picnic after the hunt. Proceeds from the sales will benefit needy families throughout the community.

Please note the following tips to help make your Easter Egg Hunt experience the best yet!
