EASTER EGG HUNT AT THE HOMOSASSA SPRINGS WILDLIFE STATE PARK
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Friends of Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park, Inc. is planning a big Easter Egg Hunt event at the Wildlife Park on Saturday, April 2, 2011. The event will be held on the green behind the parking area at the park’s Visitor Center and main entrance on U.S. 19.
Parents should bring baskets for their children for collecting eggs. There will be thousands of plastic eggs in different colors to be found and redeemed for a variety of Easter candy. There will be special prizes for finding the gold and silver eggs in each age group. Costumed characters Rocky and Rosie, the Manatees; the Easter Bunny; Terrence, the Turtle; Priscilla, the Panther; and Biddie, the Bear, will be on hand to greet children and for photos.

A donation of $5.00 per child will include admission to the Wildlife Park. Adults will be given a 33% discount on their admission to the park.

The Friends of Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park is a citizen support organization for the Wildlife Park and helps to raise funds for park projects through special events and activities and works in the community to increase the public’s awareness of the park.

Other sponsors for this event include the Citrus County Chronicle, Citrus 95.3 FM and Classic Hits 96.3 FM, WWJB 1450 AM, Wal-Mart of Homosassa Springs and Aaron’s.
