Hoboken Church Will Hold Huge, Annual Easter Egg Hunt For 2017

Hoboken Church will be holding the largest Easter Egg Hunt on Apr. 8 for its annual Easter holiday celebration for toddlers to 12 years old.

From Hoboken Grace Church: With the success of adding a second Easter Egg Hunt last year, Hoboken Grace will host its seventh annual free Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 8th at Mama Johnson Field at 4th and Jackson in Hoboken, NJ. The largest Easter Egg Hunt in Hoboken will feature 2 Hunts, 30,000 candy-stuffed eggs, music, games, pictures with the Easter Bunny, face painting, and arts and crafts.

More than 5,000 people are expected to attend. This year, registration is required to participate. Children from tots to twelve can register to take part in one of the two hunts at hobokengrace.com. The event is free and open to the public.

“This event gets bigger and bigger each year. Last year, we added a second hunt to accommodate everyone and we’re thrilled to continue with 2 hunts again this year,” said Chris High, Pastor of Hoboken Grace. “The Easter egg hunt allows us to serve and love our community here in Hoboken and we’re excited to get to do that in such a big way each year.”
