In a welcome sign of spring, The Osborn announced its Easter Egg Hunt, a much-loved tradition for the community, to be held Saturday, April 8 on its campus at 101 Theall Road in Rye. The annual event is held in memory of long-time board member and former Chair, Jack Miller, who personified the spirit of the season.
During the festivities, 6,000 candy-filled Easter eggs will be hidden for children to find, gather and enjoy.
Residents of The Osborn line the sidelines of the south lawn and porch to have a bird”™s eye view of the lively fun, allowing seniors and children to interact in a mutually joyful way. For nearly two decades, this event has been drawing hundreds of participants from all over Westchester County as well as southern Fairfield County, Connecticut.
The Easter Egg Hunt is free and open to the public; pre-registration is not required. The Hunt begins promptly at 11:15 a.m. with gates opening at 10:45 a.m. Participants should bring their own baskets to gather eggs.
The Easter Bunny will make a special appearance and be available for photos. The festivities will also feature carnival games and refreshments available for purchase. For information, call 914-925-8218 or visit theosborn.org/events.
