Easter Bunny to Visit Barrington Homes

The Barrington Park District can arrange for a special visit from the Easter Bunny to your home on March 27.

"The Barrington Park District has been making home visits with the Easter Bunny for over 10 years," said Recreation Supervisor Kim Sweeney. "It is one of our favorite and most popular events. No need to stand in line at the mall when you can have the bunny come right to your home with an Easter basket."

A Park District staff member escorts the Easter Bunny to the home with a special basket for each boy and girl, Sweeney said. Parents can snap pictures of the children with the bunny in their very own house or yard.

"The bunny loves high fives and dancing," Sweeney said. "After the bunny delivers the basket, takes a few photos and has a quick visit, he is on to the next house."

Register early because spots fill quickly, Sweeney said. Registration ends on March 18. Participants will receive a phone call the week of March 18 with the time the Bunny will arrive.

The cost is $20 for in-district residents, and $25 for out-of-district residents for the first child, and $15 for each additional child in the home. The visit will take place on March 27 from 4-7 p.m., arrival time to be determined. To register, visit www.barringtonparkdistrict.org for a registration form or call Jodi Krause at 847-381-0687 for more information.
