The Annual Easter Egg Hunt is held rain or shine. The reason for this that between the volunteers, our community partners, the limited staff and other activities taking place at Wasserman Park; there simply is no option to reschedule this event to another date.
It then becomes a choice between in running in inclement weather, or simply cancelling the event outright. The shelf life of the candy in the eggs would not last a year and so we would have to throw it all away. We would prefer people dress appropriately for the weather and come out and enjoy the event. In the past; when we've had to operate special events in inclement weather; participants have still show up so proceeding as scheduled.
As a reminder this is a free event and registration is NOT required
The 32nd Annual Easter Egg Hunt at Wasserman Park returns in 2024 on Saturday, March 23,2024. Come and join Merrimack Parks & Recreation for this Annual tradition.
For this year's event, we have 6,500 Easter eggs ready to hand out between our 5 different groups. Each group has a specific time for their Easter Egg Hunt. All children should bring their own Easter basket to collect your eggs in.
