The Annual Easter Egg Hunt is sponsored by the HyVee, 105.3 KFM & many other local businesses. Our event is a FREE family friendly afternoon with egg hunts divided up by age group for 2 – 11 years old. Children are expected to hunt for eggs on their own (unless in the 3 & under category). Only those in the 3 and under category can have parental assistance.
With 10,000 candy filled eggs, a series of grand prizes – including Lakeside Water Park family memberships, and the Easter Bunny on site for photographs, you will have plenty of excitement as you join us at Lakeside Recreation Facility.
The hunt will take place on the lawn outside Lakeside Recreation Facility.
Hunt will begin at 1pm sharp! We cannot wait for latecomers, so join us early for spring fun! HyVee will be selling food, Galesburg Parks & Recreation’s Mobile Playground Truck will be set up with fun games and activities, and more!
Ample parking can be found across the street at the old Shopko building (888 S Lake Storey Rd). Lakeside parking is limited to handicapped parking.
