The Provincial Capital Commission invites families to hop over to Government House Saturday, April 8 to participate in their annual Easter Egg Hunt.
“Put some spring in your step this holiday weekend by visiting Government House for their egg-cellent Easter Egg Hunt,” Minister Responsible for the Provincial Capital Commission Don McMorris said. “Kids of all ages can enjoy traditional activities in this family-friendly public space while learning about Saskatchewan’s proud history.”
Two hunts are scheduled for Easter Saturday: the first from 10 a.m. to noon and the second from 1 to 3 p.m. Children will receive an Easter basket to collect plastic eggs as they scramble around to hunt. Once finished, the eggs-pert hunters turn in their baskets of eggs to receive a chocolate treat. Baskets are limited so feel free to bring your own.
The free Easter Egg Hunt will be held outdoors in the Edwardian Gardens; however, the hunt will be moved indoors if the weather is unfavourable. No registration is required.
