The City of Kennesaw no longer hosts an annual Easter egg hunt. The last one took place in 2013. In 2014, we contacted the city to ask why it was ending, and got the following response from David Pies, City of Kennesaw Parks and Recreation Department Recreation Division Manager:
“With so many other community organizations hosting egg hunts in our area, the City made a decision to focus resources on its increasingly popular Bunny Breakfast.”
For more information, please call the City of Kennesaw Parks and Recreation Department at (770) 422-9714.
Update: In 2015, a new Kennesaw Easter Egg Hunt was started at Smith Gilbert Gardens. There is a fee to participate and reservations are required. Click here for more information…
Hop on over to Kennesaw’s Easter Egg Scramble on Saturday, March 30, 2013 at Adams Park in Kennesaw.
The Kennesaw Easter egg hunt begins promptly at 11am so bring the kids to hunt for thousands of colorful wrapped candy treats and goody-filled eggs (including a few “lucky” eggs that can be redeemed for larger prizes).
The scramble will be divided into three age groups on three ball fields:
0-3 years
4-5 years
Ages 6-12
A fourth field will be designated for children with special needs, or those who require assistance.
Children must be accompanied by an adult. Be sure to bring a basket or bag to collect treats, and don’t forget your camera. The Easter Bunny will be on hand for pictures, hugs and handshakes. Note: Pets are not permitted on the ball fields.
