Derby Easter Egg Hunts

The Derby Recreation Commission has a whole host of Easter egg hunts happening in 2022. Check them out below.

There are even events for older kids (yay!) ages 11-14 and events for dogs too!

Derby Teen Egg Hunt

Teens ages 11-14 will have a fun time hunting for Easter eggs in the dark! On Friday night, April 8, 2022 from 8:15 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. older kids (ages 11-14) can enjoy an egg hunt in the dark. Eggs filled with candy and prizes – including grand prizes of $75 and $50 gift cards – will be hidden throughout Garrett Park. Participants need to have a flashlight and a bag to collect the eggs. They also must bring a USD 260 student ID. More info

PAWsome Egg Hunt for Dogs

Why should people get to have all the fun? The PAWsome egg hunt on April 9, 2022 is just for dogs, and costs $5 per dog. They’ll have fun collecting treat-filled and prize-filled eggs, and can even have their picture taken with the Easter Bunny. Understandably, all dogs need to be current on vaccinations, non-aggressive, and not in heat; plus, you’ll need to keep them on a leash at all times. Large and small dogs will have separate egg-hunting areas. At the southeast corner of Garrett Park in Derby on April 9 from 10 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. More info
