Come join us at noon on Saturday, April 7, at Jack & Harriet Kaye Park (across the street from George English Park) for the Annual Coral Ridge Easter Egg Hunt. Inge Grossmann, her daughter Monica, and her grandson stuffed 1500 plastic eggs for the hunt! There are also several golden eggs that include a prize. The park will be sectioned off for three separate age groups: 4 years old and younger; 5 – 7 years old; and 8 years old and up. This is a great event for the children of Coral Ridge and a great opportunity to meet your neighbors. Remember to bring your child’s basket and arrive early. The hunt starts at noon sharp and the eggs get scooped up quickly! We look forward to seeing you Saturday.
