By |

Three thousand eggs will greet little ones at this year’s Annual Mom’s Morning In Easter Egg Hunt on the Darien Community Association’s great lawn, to be held Friday, March 25 (Good Friday) at 10 a.m.

Parents and caregivers are invited to bring toddlers and preschoolers – and their Easter egg baskets of course — to start hunting and gathering at 10 a.m. sharp (the eggs go quickly!). A special appearance by our popular Easter Bunny – who is very happy to pose for photos — will top off this delightful morning activity. Special price of $10 per car; reservations are not required. The hunt will be held at the DCA, at 274 Middlesex Road in Darien, weather permitting. For more information please contact the DCA at info@dariendca.org or 203-655-9050.
