The 24th annual Melissa Oshoway Memorial Easter Egg Hunt will be on Saturday, March 31, 2018, at 12:00 noon at the Wayne Underwood Field. The Easter egg hunt is for children ages 0-12 years old.
This event is sponsored each year by John and Sue Oshoway in memory of their daughter, Melissa Gayle Oshoway. There are over 3200 eggs for the younger children and over 3200 eggs for the older children.
6,000 of the eggs that will be hidden will have either a small toy or a piece of candy inside the egg. If your egg has a toy or candy inside it, you will not need to stand in line and wait for your prize. There will be several eggs in addition to these 6000 filled eggs with a piece of paper inside the egg, this paper will list the prize that you have won. You will need to give that slip of paper to one of the volunteers to receive that prize which will include 12 bicycles, Easter Baskets, money, stuffed animals, and lots and lots of other nice prizes.
This event is not just for Calhoun County residents, any child is welcome to participate.
