Giving eggs for the hunt? Hop to it!

If you wish to donate plastic eggs — preferably filled with pieces of wrapped candy — for the Mentelle Easter Egg Hunt on April 3, please bring them to the porch of 29 Mentelle Park. Donations will be accepted all next week, but no later than Friday, April 2.  We would love to have at least 400 eggs to make this a fun event for our neighborhood’s children.

The hunt will begin at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 3, on the Mentelle Park medians near Cramer Avenue. There will be two hunts — one for little kids through age 4 and one for bigger kids between ages 5-10.  Bigger kids will hunt on the median closest to Cramer and the little ones will hunt on the second median.

Masking for everyone over the age of 2 and physical distancing from those adults not in your household is required to ensure the safety of all participants. Thank you for doing your part to protect your neighbors! And while we would normally serve light refreshments at this event, this year we think it is best if everyone brings their own breakfast beverage with them.

We hope to see all Mentelle Neighborhood residents there!
