Local Hardisty companies got together with organizer Miranda Mccharles to create an Easter egg hunt for everybody in town to compete in, including some four-legged members.
The task was to find the golden egg. Multiple eggs were hidden in the Hardisty main street area, along walking trails and in the park ball diamonds.
There were also many sorry-for-your-luck eggs which would contain nothing.
There were 20 mystery eggs hidden as well containing a small prize. If a person stumbled upon an egg without a coupon, they were asked to leave the plastic egg in its original place.
Participants were only allowed to redeem two prize eggs with a coupon, but if they happened to find three prizes in an egg, the request was to leave one in the egg for the next person to find and use.
This wonderfully fun Easter egg hunt lasted for three days, March 29 – 31, 2024. Families searched far and wide for the eggs.
If you happen to find some plastic eggs still laying around in the Hardisty area, please contact Miranda Mccharles at 780-842-8962 and she’ll let you know what to do next!
