Several organizations will once again sponsor Easter hunts Saturday.

Visitors should enter through the west door.

THE LAHARPE PRIDE Committee plans a 2 p.m. Easter hunt filled with candy and other prizes.

More than 1,200 pieces of candy will be dispersed strategically throughout the LaHarpe City Park, with hunters divvied up into three age groups: 0-5 years, 6-10 and 11 and older.

In addition to the candy hunt, all attendees will be entered into a drawing for cash and other prizes.

 

In case of inclement weather, the event will move indoors to LaHarpe City Hall.
