It will be a celebration of Easter as children gather in Memorial Park on Saturday, April 20 for the fourth annual Easter Egg-stravaganza.

The event is presented by Remax Orchard Country in Summerland and features plenty of events and activities for children including a colouring contest, visits with the Summerland royalty, a bouncy castle, hot chocolate and doughnuts and a visit with the Easter Bunny.

But the highlight of the event will be an Easter egg dash, where children will rush to gather eggs from a section of the park.

How many eggs?

Remax staff, with help from the Summerland Girl Guides, are busily preparing 10,000 eggs for the festival.

That鈥檚 a lot of eggs, but the festival also attracts a lot of children.

鈥淲e stopped counting last year at 500 children,鈥� said Deborah Moore of Remax Orchard Country.

She said the event is a good way to celebrate the Easter weekend and a kickoff to the spring season in Summerland.

鈥淲e鈥檝e got an opportunity to add a little bit to our community,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 our way of giving back.鈥�

The festival, in Memorial Park, will run from 10 a.m. until noon.
