Grab some bunny who loves you and join the 9th annual Bunny Rock 5K Walk/Run and Egg Hunt starting and ending at Montrose Harbor in Chicago on Saturday, April 20, 2019. The 5K starts at 9:00 a.m., and an egg hunt for children ages 2-10 begins at 10:15 a.m. This event is hosted by event management company, Adrenaline Special Events (ASE).

Participants can hop, skip, walk or run to the finish line sporting bunny swag including ears, neon sunglasses and dri-fit t-shirt, all provided with registration. The egg hunt will include 3,000 candy filled eggs and be accompanied by a live petting zoo with more than 20 animals - including ducks, goats, lambs and more!
