Renton MOMS Club, South Community Connections to Host Two Different Egg Hunts This Weekend

Egg Hunts, Easter Brunch and a fundraiser.

Ready, set, hunt!

South Renton Connection's second annual Easter Egg Hunt at Burnett Linear Park (at the corner of 5th and Burnett) will kick of at 9 a.m., sharp, on Saturday, April 23. Pack up the kiddos and arrive early for a prime starting position. Word on the play yard is that this event will be over in a flash, so snatch up all the candy-filled eggs while you can.

If 9 a.m. is too early, hit the snooze, or enjoy a family breakfast before the MOMS Club of Renton's Easter Egg Hunt at 10:30 a.m., also on Saturday, April 23. This event will take place at the Newcastle Beach Park, 4400 Lake Washington Boulevard SE. The hunt will go on, rain or shine. If you're feeling lost, look for the bright pink MOMS volunteers, who will be sporting bright pink T-shirts.
