Atlantic Parks & Rec Invites Community to Paint Easter Eggs, Join Summer Activities

(Atlantic) Atlantic Parks & Recreation has large wooden Easter eggs available for the community to paint again this year. If you’re interested in painting an egg, they will be sitting outside the front door of the Atlantic Parks and Recreation Office at 1200 Sunnyside Lane. Atlantic Parks and Recreation Coordinator Jeff Christensen said once you paint them, return them to the office and the Parks and Recreation Department will put them up for display.

Jeff Christensen also noted the raised garden beds at Mollett Park are open for reservation. The cost is $35. Contact Jeff at jeffchristensen@cityofatlantic.com. He said they are also going to have a swim team and a tennis team this year. Cost for the swim team is $60; contact jlarsen@atlanticiaschools.org or jeffchristensen@cityofatlantic.com.
