Harvest Moon’s Drive-In Easter Egg Hunt
April 20th, 3 p.m. Harvest Moon Drive-In in Gibson City
3 Age groups. We’ll have roughly 3,000 eggs containing candy hidden around the theater. The Easter Bunny will be here for photos with the kids and the Carousel will be open and running for those wanting a ride.
This is a free event for kids 10 years old or younger.
The gates will open at 3 pm and the event starts at 3:30 pm and lasts until 4 pm or all age groups have finished up. Limited Concessions will be available for purchase in the main snack bar also. Due to the issues in the past, we’ve divided our event into 3 age classes this year and will be hosting the egg hunt during the daylight hours as we will most likely not be showing a kids movie for the holiday weekend. All three groups will start around the same time in 3 different sections of the theater. The age categories are as follows:

Ages 4 and younger
Ages 5-7
Ages 8-10

Number of eggs allowed to be collected will be determined by participants in each category. So mark your calendar and head to the drive-in on Saturday the 20th for our annual egg hunt!
