Spring has sprung in the Township of Union, and the Center is celebrating with their 2nd Annual Spring Eggstravaganza, which will be taking place on April 13 and April 20, 2019. The Eggstravagazna will consist of a scavenger hunt in the Center, Photos with the Easter Bunny and an Easter Paint and Sip.
“Our goal for this Spring Eggstravaganza is to have families come out to celebrate and enjoy a day of fun. Residents will have the opportunity to walk through our Center and discover all the hidden gems that we have right here in town. Last year, we celebrated the first Eggstravaganza and it was a huge hit, we had a packed house and this year we hope to do the same,” said Fatimah Raymond, Union Center SID Director.
The Eggstravaganza will be kicked off with a Scavenger hunt on April 13 from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. Participants will be able to collect clues by visiting participating merchants, such as Norma’s Flowers, DAVA Latin Fusion Restaurant, El Chingon Tex-Mex Restaurant, Blue Ribbon Bakery, and The Gym for Kids.
