CLEARWATER, Fla., April 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Clearwater’s Coachman Park was filled with the sounds of thousands of squealing children as they hunted among 30,000 eggs, gathering as many as they could including one of the 275 Golden Eggs that each produced a big, stuffed bunny. For a quarter of a century, Clearwater Community Volunteers, the Church of Scientology and the City of Clearwater have sponsored this very fun and exciting event.

The Hunt happened at 12:30 sharp and was over in under five minutes, but many stayed after the hunt for the attractions.
Tampa’s Bill Lindsey warmed up the crowd with his Elvis and Rock n Roll songs. The children enjoyed pony rides, a petting zoo, face painting, train rides on the “Bunny Express,” a gyroscope, giant slide, a large bouncy house, and a bouncy house for the little ones too. The Easter Bunny and his Mrs. wandered around taking pictures with the children.
