THE EASTER BUNNY is expected in town during the annual Egg Hunt sponsored by the Wakefield Center Neighborhood Association.
Hello kids! I am writing to let you know that I will be visiting Wakefield on Saturday, April 8, for the Wakefield Center Neighborhood Association’s annual Easter Egg Hunt. If the weather is bad that day, I will plan to come to Wakefield a week later on Saturday, April 15.
The Hunt will start at 10 a.m. sharp! Please make sure that your mommies and daddies bring you to the Wakefield Lower Common several minutes before 10 a.m. so that you will not miss any of the fun.
My friends at the Wakefield Center Neighborhood Association have told me that they will hide thousands and thousands of small chocolate eggs on the Common. As in past years, some of the foil-covered eggs will be specially marked. If you are lucky enough to find a specially marked egg, you will be awarded prizes which have been donated by Wakefield’s Walgreens. Prizes to be won are chocolate bunnies for older kids, fuzzy toy animals for younger children and one grand prize for the luckiest hunter: a giant toy rabbit.
I plan to arrive by fire engine at the end of the Hunt to meet and greet each of you. I look forward to seeing you all on April 8.
Happy Hunting!
The Easter Bunny
