Children Invited To Go Hunting . . . For Easter Eggs

2007-03-30 / Community

Garden City might not spring to mind as the hunting capital of the Tri-State area. Unless, of course, the hunters happen to be children, and the game they stalk happens to be candy-filled plastic eggs.

Such a hunt happens annually at Lutheran Church of the Resurrection, and this year is no exception. On Saturday, April 7, children between the ages of 2 and 10 are invited to join in the candy quest, which begins at 10 a.m. indoors with an Easter story. Children will then be divided into age groups and, in the words of the event's coordinator, Nathan Erb, they'll "go wild and hunt for Easter eggs." (Erb adds that during this time of going wild, parents are required to remain with their children.) The event is open to all. For more information, contact the church office at 516-746-4426.

Resurrection-Garden City is a Christian community of faith, located at 420 Stewart Avenue. All are welcome to worship on Saturdays at 5:30 p.m. and Sundays at 8:30 and 11 a.m., with Sunday School and Adult Education at 9:45 a.m. Parking is available on Devereux and Emmet Place.
