EGGstravaganza! in downtown Washougal April 12
Posted March 31, 2017
Washougal families, with kids fifth grade and under, are invited to downtown Washougal on Wednesday, April 12, from 3 to 5:30 p.m., for a fun EGGstravaganza! at Reflection Plaza. Hosted by City of Washougal and the Downtown Washougal Association, this family-fun egg hunt event is in its second year.
EGGstravaganza! features an egg hunt with plastic eggs hidden among straw bales. Eggs will be filled with treats and toys. Some lucky egg hunters will find coupons for a free pansy plant at Washougal TruValue Hardware.
To help manage the chaos of most egg hunts, kids will enter the hunt area in small groups and will be challenged to find eggs of different colors before they exit. This method helps spread the event over the whole afternoon so families won’t miss out on any fun if they arrive after it begins. Approximately 5,000 eggs will be on hand, and used to replenish the supply to keep the hunting going.
The event is planned during Washougal schools’ early release and will also include cotton candy, photos with the Easter Bunny and other costumed characters, treats, music, and activities for youngsters. Children should be accompanied by an adult. Volunteers are needed and can contact organizers at dwavolunteer@gmail.com.
