Easter Eggstravaganza

Egg Scramble

The Dexter Parks & Recreation Commission will be holding its annual Easter Eggstravaganza Egg Scramble on Saturday, April 19th in Community Park on Ryan Dr. Check-in will begin at 9:00am, with the scrambles beginning at 10:00am. Children 10 and under are invited to participate, with the kids being split into three groups, 0-2, 3-4, and 5+. Children will be able to get prizes, get their face painted, decorate their own Easter bag, and meet the Easter Bunny!

Tickets will be on sale at Dexter City Hall located at 3515 Broad Street starting Tuesday, February 18th. Tickets are $3/child or $7/family with 3 or more children. Tickets will be available day-of, but pre-purchase is highly appreciated in order to estimate attendance.

Additional parking will be available in the Dexter Crossing parking lot across the street from Busch’s.

Riddle Hunt

Another part of the Easter Eggstravaganza will be the Riddle Hunt, which will begin Saturday, April 5th to April 23rd. To participate, go HERE : and download the Riddle Hunt sheet (which will be available online on April 4th). Using the clues on the riddle sheet, families will track down a hidden Easter Egg in each of the City’s seven parks that will have a word printed on the back (please leave the wooden eggs in the park). Using the words, you will create a secret Easter phrase that you can bring back to City Hall (3515 Broad Street) to claim a prize! The last day to bring back the phrase will be Wednesday, April 23rd.
