(Atlantic) Atlantic Rising, along with Atlantic Parks & Recreation, will be hosting Easter at Sunnyside Park on Saturday, April 3rd from 9:00 AM-11:00AM.
Kelsey Beschorner is Atlantic Rising’s Social Chair…
Located at the Kiddie Korral, children will have the opportunity to take a socially distanced picture with the Easter Bunny and receive a goodie bag that includes coupons and eggs filled with candy. Atlantic Coca-Cola Bottling Company will have a pop stand in the park to provide a free refreshment to all in attendance.
The event is in conjunction with Atlantic Parks & Recreation’s Second Annual Easter Egg Cruise. Children and adults alike are encouraged to pick up, paint and return a provided wooden Easter Egg by Friday, March 26th. The decorated eggs will be used to decorate Sunnyside Park on Easter weekend. On April 3rd, residents are encouraged to cruise Sunnyside Park and vote for their favorite egg.
Atlantic Parks and Recreation Director Bryant Rasmussen….
The winner of the contest will be announced on the Atlantic Parks & Recreation & Atlantic Chamber of Commerce Facebook page.
Rasmussen noted that voting will be on Saturday, but the eggs will be left up all weekend for anyone who would like to drive through and see them. He said there will also be some golden eggs hidden throughout the park where you can go on a scavenger hunt and figure out what words are displayed.
