Peasholm Park’s Easter eggstravaganza
2 April 2012
The Peasholm Park Friends group are inviting everyone to a
special Easter Eggstravaganza, the first of many events planned in
2012 to mark the park’s 100th birthday. The event ‘cracks off’ at
12 noon on Easter Sunday, 8 April.
The Easter Eggstravaganza will host plenty of fun activities to
keep the whole family entertained including:
- Easter basket making
- Hunt the chick (treats included!)
- Egg decorating – bring an egg or two to decorate
- Egg rolling contests
- An Easter bonnet competition – bring your fancy hat to win a
prize
There will be a small charge to take part in the above
activities and the Friends will also be selling Easter cakes and
handmade gifts with all proceeds going towards promoting more
Friends events and activities at the park during this anniversary
year.
Linda Harper, from the Peasholm Park Friends said:
“This is a wonderful event to start off the Peasholm Park
Centenary celebrations and it is the second year we have organised
an Easter event. Last year proved very popular and it is always
encouraging to see so many families taking part in activities and
enjoying the scenery and variety that the park offers.”
Other special events planned for the spring and summer Peasholm
Centenary celebrations include a Diamond Jubilee Big Picnic,
Norwegian Marching Bands, Evening Shadows in the Park, The Three
Tenors and Swing in the Park. In addition, the Peasholm Park
Friends will be holding a unique, open to everyone celebration
party to commemorate the park’s centenary on 24 June.
