Easter-ween this Saturday in Ogden
The Old High School Park at 300 North Market Street in Ogden will be the site of Easter-ween this Saturday starting at 10am.
The egg hunt, originally scheduled for April 11, was postponed until this weekend due to the Shelter-in-Place Executive Orders issued by Governor Pritzker to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus.
In late March, Ogden trustee Sue Esposito told The News-Gazette that the village had no intent in canceling the event.
"We are going to just delay it, " she said. "So if we have an egg hunt in November or even December, whatever. ... There’s $700 worth of candy, eggs and money. That’s a lot. We’re not just going to give it up."
The Village of Ogden will provide Halloween bags to egg hunters.
