Classroom Connections, in partnership with the Hickory Crawdads and WHKY, is inviting children in grades 6 and under to a free Easter Egg Hunt on April 2, 2022, from 10 am-12 pm at L.P. Frans Stadium in Hickory.
All children in attendance will receive a free Easter basket with grass, as well as a free ticket to any Hickory Crawdads baseball game at home during the 2022 season. Children will be broken up into age groups to hunt for eggs out on the field. Eggs will be exchanged for candy or prizes such as cash, toys, dolls, stuffed animals, arts/crafts kits, and passes or vouchers to local businesses. All attendees will be entered in a raffle for a chance to win one of the grand prizes which include 4 tablets, 4 bicycles, radio-controlled cars, trucks and train set, wireless earbuds, and more.
“We have over 10,000 eggs that we’re going to put on that field; thousands of dollars in prizes will be given out via those eggs,” said Donald Hicks, Founder and Executive Director of Classroom Connections. “We want to see children at play; we hope families join us for this fun event we’re hosting on April 2.”
