Easter Egg Hunt

- STAFF REPORT

The Springfiel­d Church of Christ, 1620 Buck Creek Lane, will be hosting a COVID-19 friendly Easter Egg Hunt for infants through sixth grade on April 3. Children will be divided up into three age groups in order to keep the younger children safe and to ensure everyone is able to find their share of Easter eggs. A Golden Egg will be hidden in each hunting area. The child who finds the Golden Egg can turn it in for a special age appropriat­e prize.

Pre-registrati­on is required online at the church website at springfiel­dcofc.com, on the church Facebook page (Springfiel­d Church of Christ-Christian) or by contacting the church office at 937-322-7207.

The Easter Egg hunt will have staggered start times

for each age group. Times are: 1 p.m. for birth to three years old; 1:30 p.m. for four to eight years old; and 2 p.m. for nine years old and up.

Participan­ts are asked to arrive near their age group’s starting time. Younger children may be signed up to hunt with older children, however no children over the age grouping will be allowed to hunt with the younger children. Parents may be

with the birth through threeyear-old group. It’s requested that only parents of special needs children hunt with the older children in order to keep with social distancing recommenda­tions as much as possible.

Facial coverings are required by all guests age four and above. Instead of providing a meal and craft opportunit­ies, a gift bag that includes a snack and a take

home craft will be given to each participan­t.
