Easter Egg Hunt to be Held Saturday

The 64th annual Easter Egg Hunt will be held Saturday at the Far Hills Fairgrounds to celebrate the holiday.

Bedminster and Far Hills will be holding the event at 12 p.m. at the fairgrounds at the corner of Peapack Road and Route 202/Main Street.

The event will be held rain or shine.

Children ranging in age from pre-school to sixth grade are invited to participate in the free event, with individual age categories of pre-kindergarten and kindergarten, grades one through three and grades four through six.

More than 1,500 eggs have been filled with candy and numbered by the Bedminster Girl Scouts and other community service volunteers from Bedminster Township School.

Prizes are being donated by the Team Welsh/Jeep Chrysler in Far Hills, and will be given out to the winners.

In addition, the Easter Bunny will be on hand to meet the children and congratulate winners.

All participants will also get some Easter candy of their own.

The event is being sponsored by the Bedminster Recreation Department, the Far Hills-Bedminster Fire Department, the Borough of Far Hills and the Far Hills-Bedminster Lions Club.
