**Blue eggs will be filled with non-food items for kids with food allergies or other special dietary/nutritional restrictions.**
**We will have a special session for kids with disabilities and sensory issues from 9:15 - 9:45 a.m.**
Search areas will be divided up into age groups again
1-4 years old
5-8 years old
9-12 years old
Parent may watch and take pictures from the outer perimeter of the hunt areas but no parents will be allowed to enter the search area this year. We will have volunteers on hand to help all the little ones.
Last year some kids went home with 0 eggs while others went home with more than 30. So we will enforce the 10 egg rule this year so that each child has a chance to find some eggs. Thank you for your understanding and support as we grow this super fun event!
