East Rockaway, Lynbrook hosts annual Easter Egg Hunt for neighbors

The East Rockaway Village Board hosted their annual Easter Egg Hunt at Memorial Park last Saturday, as Lynbrook neighbors hopped on by Greis Park, also last Saturday, to celebrate the village's Easter celebration.

Kids in East Rockaway participated in fun games, crafts, and tested their skills to earn candy-filled eggs. The park erupted in games such as bunny hole, carrot toss, pin the tail on the bunny, egg and spoon challenge, cottontail croquet, and springtime scavenger hunt. After collecting their eggs, participants decorated them in bright, spring colors.

In Lynbrook, dozens partook in the annual Easter egg hunt, played various games, and enjoyed some giveaways. Following the egg hunt, community members had the opportunity to take pictures with the Easter Bunny. Kids went home with candy and smiles on their faces as this event kick started the Easter festivities.
