Hoppin’ down the bunny trail at Kingsville’s Lakeside Park

Hundreds of families made their way down to Lakeside Park’s lower bowl this past Saturday for an Easter celebration with Beau Bunny, the Spring Fairy and a whole lot of animals from the farm. Children eagerly took part in a scavenger hunt and played lawn games as a lead-up to the day’s main events, the egg grabs. A mad dash for candy and chocolate eggs was first held for the youngest, up to the age of four, followed by a second dash for kids aged five to eight.

The Town of Kingsville organized the event and provided bunny ears, a treat bag and some chalk for every child in attendance. 

Prior to the egg grab sessions, Kingsville Mayor Dennis Rogers publicly thanked the generous sponsors the Easter Egg Hunt and acknowledged the many volunteers that came out to support the activities set up for the children.

Beau Bunny was a big attraction at this year’s Town of Kingsville Easter Egg Hunt. Taking a photo with Beau are Isla Locknick and her younger brother Liam.
Velvet Edge Entertainment had a tent setup to provide an opportunity for the kids to try their hand at juggling or some plate spinning. The Spring Fairy from Velvet Edge made her way around the grounds
to entertain and is pictured here alongside volunteer Niki Hardy with the prize baskets for the winners of
the day’s scavenger hunt.
