Children invited to hunt for eggs at Lewes Canalfront Park April 15

Children ages 10 and under are invited to celebrate the arrival of spring and hop on over to Lewes Canalfront Park for the annual egg hunt from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., Saturday, April 15. Friends of Lewes Canalfront Park have stuffed 6,000 eggs with candy, trinkets and treasures that will be hidden throughout the park on the banks of the Lewes-Rehoboth Canal. Egg hunt treats are peanut-free and food-allergy friendly.

Registration and activities will begin at 10 a.m., and the egg hunt will begin at 11 a.m. sharp. The Easter Bunny will be available to pose for photos, and there will be face painting and balloon artistry. The fun will happen rain or shine, but in the event of heavy rain, attendees should drive over to the parking lot for the little hunters to collect their eggs. Tickets are $5 for a single child and $10 for two or more children in a family. The event is recommended for kids 10 years old and under.

Advance purchase is encouraged. To buy tickets in advance, go to lewescanalfrontpark.org. There will be no printed tickets, so attendees should arrive as early as 10 a.m to register for participation. To reach the information hotline, call 302-645-2795.
