The egg hunts are back, if you can find them.
Area groups will bring back several Easter egg hunts this year after taking a couple of years off because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Among the local events:
An Easter Egg Hunt will begin at 9 a.m. at Riverside Park south of the recreation building for children 12 and younger. Bring a bag or basket.
The Iola Kiwanis Club’s Easter egg hunt will begin at noon on April 16 at the courthouse square.
Children up to fifth grade will be separated into age categories to give little ones a better chance to collect goodies.
In the event of inclement weather, the hunt will be moved to the activities building at Allen Community College.
LaHarpe PRIDE will have an Easter egg hunt at 2 p.m. at LaHarpe City Park. Arrive early, at 1 p.m. to take photos with the Easter bunny.
The egg hunt will include money as well as candy.
In case of rain, the event will be moved to City Hall.
