Want to win great prizes and have fun hunting Easter eggs? The Ferguson Parks and Recreation Department and Ferguson Citywalk invites you to this event. Our very own rascally rabbit has been busy stuffing eggs with candy, and 40 prize eggs filled with coupons to City Walk businesses will be scattered on the grounds of The Ferguson Sports Complex at Forestwood Park. This event is open to adults 18 and older. So grab your basket and flashlight for an evening down memory lane. Pre-registration is required for this event! Maximum event size: 100.

Just like the egg hunt, only for your furry dog! The Doggie Easter Egg-Stravaganza will be held at the new Wayside Park Unleashed dog park. There will be two hunt areas, one in the small dog and another in the large dog area. Each area will have plastic dog treat filled eggs and several prize eggs. Dogs will be allowed to “find” as many eggs a possible in the hunt area. Dogs must remain on a leash at all times. Owners; don’t forget to bring your basket to put all of Fido’s eggs in during the hunt. Prizes will be given for the best dressed dog. The Easter Bunny will be on-site for photos with your pet. All ages are welcome but pets must have a responsible adult present. Owners assume all responsibility for their dog’s behavior. Dogs must be current on all vaccinations. Supervisor: Stan Kreitler.

Join us April 22, 2010, to celebrate Ferguson’s first official Earth Day Celebration! NOW is the time to learn about the steps you can take to green your life and ensure that future generations have clean air to breath, clean water to drink, and a beautiful environment to enjoy.  Ferguson’s Earth Day celebration will inspire appreciation for the natural environment and raise awareness about the importance of conservation.

Ferguson’s Earth Day celebration will include activities throughout the day including a parade that will circle January Wabash Park, a R.E.C.Y.C.L.E. group song competition for prizes, a bike-powered blender and other interesting demonstrations, eco-friendly products, and much more.  The day will also involve a service activity for those who wish to lend a hand to keep the planet and our community litter-free.  Groups will be assigned to different areas of the park to remove all trash and debris found along the way.  Think globally, act locally! Supervisor:  Cathy Wallace
