Easter egg hunts Saturday in Dodge County

Easter egg hunts and the Easter Bunny are taking center stage in Dodge County.

First event is Thursday night when the K-M Early Childhood Family Education has an Easter Celebration at Community Education, 606 16th St. NE., for youngsters six and under.

Doors open at 5:45 p.m. for arts, crafts, and pictures with the Easter Bunny. The Easter Egg Hunt begins at 6:30 p.m. and will be held outside if the weather is nice and inside the elementary school if it is not.

The event is sponsored by K-M ECFE and Community Celebration Church.

Egg hunts are scheduled in Mantorville, Dodge Center, Hayfield, and West Concord on Saturday, April 8, and the Easter Bunny himself is scheduled to stop by Mantorville.

Mantorville’s hunt is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. when the Easter Bunny will make a stop at Riverside Park and visit with youngsters until 9:30.

The egg hunt itself begins at 9:30 a.m. Those coming to the egg hunt are asked to bring a donation for the Dodge County Food Shelf in Kasson.

The hunt is sponsored by the Mantorville Area Chamber of Commerce, Thrivent, Hubbell House and KMTelecom.

In Dodge Center, there will be an egg hunt at 10 a.m. at Grace Lutheran Church.

In Hayfield, the egg hunt is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. at Earl Himle Park. It is for children 10 and under. Bring your own bag or basket to collect eggs.

West Concord area residents are invited to stop by Lion’s Park at 10 a.m. for the egg hunt, rain, snow, or sunshine.

This hunt will be first come, first serve. There are no slotted times for different ages and when the eggs are gone, they are gone, sponsors said.

Parents are asked to limit each child to six eggs so that there are enough for all.

The event is sponsored by the Cardinal Club of West Concord, the City of West Concord, West Concord Historical Society and the West Concord Lions Club.
