When Southborough Kindergroup initially announced the annual Easter Egg Hunt for this Saturday, they listed Sunday as the “rain date”. But with a rainy forecast threatening the entire weekend, those plans have changed.
Now, they are promoting tomorrow morning’s Egg Hunt as “rain or shine” fun.
It’s not the first time that Kindergroup has plowed ahead despite a wet forecast.
So, if it rains, make like New Englanders — pull out your rain gear along with your Easter baskets, and plan for some fun. As their social media post promotes, rainy weather means opportunities for “puddle jumping”.
Kindergroup’s festivities will take place Saturday, April 12th on St. Mark’s Field. (That’s at the corner of Routes 30 & 85.)
The event is free to the public, but they did ask families to pre-register to help them plan.
The classic traditional fun that Kindergroup has offered for years is scooping up plastic eggs with candy, and posing for pics with the Easter Bunny. (Bring your own camera.) Beyond that some details change from year to year.
This spring, organizers promoted that there will be a DJ playing music, face painting, and refreshments. The kids will be split into three age groups that will hunt at different times: 0-3 years, 4-6 years, and 7+ years.
“Pre-Hunt” activities will begin at 10:00 am, and the first hunt “promptly at 10:30 a.m.”. Kids should bring their own baskets with them.
The free event is made possible through a donation from “generous presenting sponsor, Nan’s Kitchen”. The candy and refreshments are donated by Wegman’s, BJ’s, and Dunkin’.
