Cary Easter Egg Hunt Starts Today

Cary, NC —  The Easter Bunny has started to make its rounds early this year and has left behind 9 giant Easter eggs all around town.

How the Hunt Will Work in 2021

Though it’s off to a rainy start, the weekend-long 2021 Hoppin’ Around Cary Easter Egg Hunt is here. The Town-wide hunt involves solving a series of clues to various Cary parks from 10 AM on Friday, March 19 to 5 PM Sunday, March 21. The hunt is designed for all ages and all are welcome to participate for free in the self-guided adventure.

Once eggs are found, participating adults can scan the QR code at the sight with their smartphones and enter a name, email address and phone number in the form. Those who can find multiple eggs, be sure to fill out the form each time you discover a new one—this gives you more chances to win. (One entry per family per egg.)

The winning person or family will receive an exclusive Easter basket filled with goodies and activities to enjoy.
