4th Annual Easter Egg Hunt and Scavenger Hunt
Depot Square Park and local Peterborough Merchants
Come meet the Easter Bunny and search for some of the many eggs scattered around the Depot Square Park. This event is held rain/shine or snow. So wear appropriate footwear because we will be holding the event outside.

If there is any event that the PRD offers that requires timeliness... this is it!! The eggs will be gone by 10:35am, so please come on time and bring your camera and a basket for your eggs!

We have many merchants participating in a scavenger hunt and other activities. The scavenger hunt can be started anytime after 10:40am. Clues can be picked up near the Depot Square clock (near the Waterhouse Restaurant and Bar).  Folks participating in the scavenger hunt have until 1pm to gather all their clues. Those who completely finish the scavenger hunt can turn in their paper slips in the Depot Park Amphitheatre. There will be a drawing from all scavenger hunt participant entries to win a variety of prizes in the Golden Eggs!
