Clarksville Parks and Recreation’s “Spring Eggstravanganza” easter egg hunt was held Saturday

Clarksville, TN – The City of Clarksville’s Department of Parks and Recreation held their annual Spring Eggstravanganza easter egg hunt on Saturday, April 7th on the Heritage Park Baseball Fields. The turn out was overwhelming, and so the Clarksville Department of Parks and Recreation staff are planning to make adjustments to the event next year. Thousands of families showed up to enjoy the absolutely wonderful afternoon.

Riverview Mounds Century Farms hosts one of the most popular attractions with the young people, a petting zoo with various barnyard animals including a calf, and goats that the kids were able to feed. Clarksville Family Magazine provided the the inflatable Zone, a variety of games, and the face painting and air brush booths.

The egg hunts were divided up into several different age groups, 3-4, 5-6, 7-9, and 10-12, with the young folks hunting over 20,000 candy and prize-filled eggs. Clarksville Family Magazine sponsored a coloring contest for each age group, with the winners getting a 15 second head start gathering eggs.

The Easter Bunny had paired up with Chris Hansen of Chris Hansen-Family Photography to capture the kids special moments which will be displayed along with Clarksville Online’s Photos on the Clarksville Department of Parks and Recreation’s Facebook Page later this week.

Spring Eggstravaganza was sponsored by River View Mounds Century Farm, Clarksville Family Magazine, Lamar Advertising, The Leaf-Chronicle, and WJZM 1400 AM. Security was provided by officers from the Clarksville Police Department.
