The City of Auburn Parks and Recreation Department will be hosting its 44th Annual Easter Egg Hunt.

You will receive an email with a map of the hunting grounds before the event, so be sure to register in advance.

Once the hunt begins, thousands of eggs filled with candy and toys will be hidden throughout the park. One lucky hunter will find the golden egg and get access to a prize basket with gift cards, toys and Easter goodies. 

You can enjoy face painting, balloon animals and inflatables throughout the event.

Psst, I heard a rumor that the Easter Bunny will be making an appearance—don’t forget to say hello and get your picture taken!
