Saturday, March 30, the Meridian Optimist Club will be holding its 47th Annual Easter Egg Hunt. It will be held at the Meridian Elementary School located at 1035 NW 1st Street, Map Meridian. Egg Off will be at 11:00 a.m. sharp so get there a little early for a great spot! We invite kids ages toddler/special through 10 years of age to participate.

The field will be divided into four lanes, one for each age group. There will be signage near the starting line indicating which age group is in that lane.

Adults are asked not to enter any of the lanes with the exception of the toddlers. Adults are welcome to accompany the toddlers.

There will be marked “Laffy Taffy” with a sticker indicating 0-3, 4-5, 6-7 or 8-10. (Each lane is assigned a number) Take your winning “Laffy Taffy(ies)” to the prize table set up at the end of the lane you picked them up in to claim your prize(s). Make sure you are at the correct table by age group.

The hunt will begin when the fire truck and police sirens go off at 11:00 a.m. sharp! This is when the fun begins!

There will be complimentary hot chocolate, coffee, and bottled water available at the refreshment table located at the playground entrance. There will be a donation jar at this table and donations will be very much appreciated.
