NEW
BERLIN
–
New
Berlin’s
Community
Events
Committee
is
ready
for
a
fun-filled
Easter
weekend.
On
Saturday,
April
4,
the
committee
will
host
their
annual
Easter
Egg
Hunt
in
Hyde
park
at
12:30.
Rain
or
shine,
the
community
is
invited
to
come
out
and
celebrate
Easter
with
candy,
prizes
and
photos
with
the
Easter
Bunny.
According
to
New
Berlin
Youth
Commissioner
Kelly
Banks,
the
event
will
begin
at
12:30
when
the
Easter
Bunny
will
arrive
at
Hyde
Park
on
a
fire
truck
from
the
New
Berlin
Fire
Department.
“He
will
arrive
just
in
time
to
kick
off
the
event.”
Approximately
1,500
eggs
have
been
filled
with
treats
for
the
kids.
“All
the
eggs
have
candy.
Some
have
prizes
as
well,”
Banks
said.
If
children
find
an
egg
with
a
number
in
it,
they
should
bring
it
to
the
booth
to
claim
their
prize.
All
the
prizes
have
been
provided
by
local
businesses
and
volunteers.
This
year,
there
will
be
separate
areas
for
children
of
different
ages
to
make
the
event
more
fun
for
all.
Children
from
0-3
will
be
in
the
basketball
court
area.
While
children
4-8
and
9
and
older
will
have
two
separate
areas
to
search
for
eggs.
“As
soon
as
all
the
eggs
are
picked
up,
pictures
with
the
Easter
Bunny
will
begin,”
Banks
said.
Banks
anticipated
the
pictures
would
begin
by
1
p.m.
