The Vermilion & District Chamber of Commerce was evaluating current events for their first quarter of the year and as they currently do not have any events in that time frame they decided to host community Easter Egg Hunts that are being sponsored by various local businesses.
The Hunts will be held on separate days with Vermilion’s eggs being hidden on April 2, Mannville’s hidden on April 3 and Kitscoty’s on April 4; there will be 200 eggs filled with Candy, goodies, gift certificates, and Chamber Cash in each community.
“We will also have an event on April 6 at Shoppers Drug Mart where visitors will have the opportunity to search for an item that is priced as $0, if they find the item they get to keep it. There is only one item and it is valued at $50,” explained Office Manager Leanne Martin, for the Chamber.
Vermilion Chrysler will be hosting an event on April 7 where one winner will also take home a prize valued at $50.
To participate in the Easter Egg Hunt, no pre-registration is required.
“People can find all the complete details on our website at www.vermilionalbertachamber.com,” said Martin, she went on to say that they are asking people to take pictures as they are finding the eggs and post them to social media tagging the Chamber @vermilionalbertachamber #vermilionalbertachamber.
Martin said to see clues you can follow them on Tik Tok @vermilionalbertachamber. If you are unfamiliar with Tik Tok you can download the Tik Tok app on your mobile phone or devices. The Chamber hopes to make the Easter Egg Hunt an annual spring event and politely asks residents to take a couple of eggs and leave some for other community members who may also be out hunting for eggs.
