This year marks the Ellwood City Area Easter Egg Hunt’s 26th community event and this year things will be slightly different.
Due to COVID-19 and continued safe social distancing practices, this year’s event has been changed to a drive thru event where treat bags will be handed out.
“Instead of doing 25 Golden Eggs this year we are going to do something different,” said committee member Kathy Brenner. “This year we are going to put a theme to our event – An Easter Parade.”
Have your child(ren) help you decorate your vehicle and get a slip to enter a contest to win one of the Golden Easter Prizes. In order to get a slip a car MUST be decorated.
The event will take place on Saturday, March 27th beginning at noon and lasting until 2:00 p.m. The committee has selected four area parking lots and the event is a drive thru only. Children MUST BE PRESENT IN VEHICLE.
Area locations include: Franklin Township Plaza parking lot, Perry Elementary School parking lot, former Ellwood City Hospital parking lot, and Main St Chapel Church in Wampum at the 5 points. Each location will have characters at the drive-thru.
“We chose the spots that we did so we could make sure all the kids in our community have a opportunity to get a treat bags,” said Brenner.

Brenner adds, “This event is about creating memories and after 26 years when parents say to me how much they remembered when they came and how much fun they had and how excited they are to be able to share the same event with their children and how much they appreciate what we do and that they can’t wait till we can get back into the park and go back to our annual Easter Egg.”
“This is a community event I have been doing this for years and the look on a child’s face say’s it all.”
