30,000 Easter Eggs Up For Grabs April 13 At Cambridge High Hunt

MILTON, GA -- Grab your baskets and get ready for a day of Easter fun Saturday, April 13. This year's Milton Community Egg Hunt will feature 30,000 colorful eggs spread across the Cambridge High School football field.

More than 300 volunteers are expected at this free, family-friendly event, hosted by Stonecreek Church in partnership with the city of Milton. There will be egg hunts for children age 0 to fifth grade, inflatables, face painting, music and a visit from the Easter Bunny. Activities take place from 2-4 p.m.

"Stonecreek has a heart for this city and community and we thought we could do more if we partnered with the city," Jordan Ledwell, Kids Pastor at Stonecreek Church, said in a release. "We knew that together, we could do something spectacular."

The Community Egg Hunt is free, and no sign up is necessary. Parking will be available at Cambridge High School and Stonecreek Church. Follow the event on Facebook for day-of or weather-related updates.

According to Milton's Community Outreach and Engagement Manager Courtney Spriggs, the City hosted an annual egg hunt at Friendship Park for several years. However, limited staffing and available volunteers for such a large community event led city staff to discontinue the event in 2017.

"Organizations collaborating and working together is what makes events like this one possible," Spriggs said. "Stonecreek choosing the Community Egg Hunt as their City Serve volunteer event has been the catalyst for a lot of new connections, which is going to make this such a fun day."
