The Kingaroy Lions Club will be holding their second annual Easter Egg Hunt in Kingaroy’s Memorial Park on Easter Saturday, March 31.<\/p>\n

The idea was the brainchild of Sarah Potter, who suggested the club offer a fun activity for local families during the Easter break.<\/p>\n

Sarah\u2019s fellow Lions Club members agreed to give it a try, and were astonished when a crowd of about 300 parents and children came along to participate.<\/p>\n

The day raised $1000 for Lions community projects, and gave a lot of happy children a unique Easter experience into the bargain.<\/p>\n

This year’s event will follow a similar format, with two Easter Egg hunts at 9:30am and 11:00am.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Easter Bunny will also be paying a visit at 10:00am.<\/p>\n

There’ll be a coffee van on site for bleary-eyed parents who need caffeine, along with a Lions sausage sizzle and cold drinks.<\/p>\n

Children can take part in craft activities for a $5 contribution towards materials, if they wish.<\/p>\n

But fun games like three-legged races, egg and spoon, a sack race and egg tossing are all free.<\/p>\n
