Tucker, GA — Tucker has announced plans for an Easter Egg Hunt this year.

The event will take place on April 3 at Fitzgerald Park. Children up to age 12 will be divided by age group and will have a chance to find 7,000 eggs hidden across several fields.

“We’re excited to be able to offer this activity for children in the community,” Tucker Recreation Leader Jen Young said in a press release. “With schools going back face-to-face, we thought this would be a great opportunity to host a safe, in-person event that complies with CDC protocols.”

There will be COVID-19 protocols in place.

Temperatures will be taken on arrival and everyone will have to wear masks.

“This is the third year that Tucker’s Parks and Recreation Department has organized an ‘egg’ event,” a press release from the city says. “In 2019, they hosted a traditional egg hunt for hundreds of children at Kelley Cofer Park. Last year, because of the pandemic, the event was modified to a drive-thru egg giveaway.”
