More than 16,000 candy-filled eggs will be up for grabs.

More than 16,000 candy-filled eggs will be up for grabs Saturday in the 22nd Annual Easter Egg Hunt at Ida Lee Park. The event for ages 1-7 is from noon to 4 p.m. It is hosted by the Leesburg Parks and Recreation Department.
More details from the Town of Leesburg: 

The hunts will be held by age group: 1 year olds, 2 year olds, 3 year olds, 4 year olds, 5 year olds, and 6-7 year olds. One parent will be allowed to assist children ages 2 and under. All other age groups will hunt without parents. Each hunt will have one Grand Prize egg and the lucky hunter will receive a basket full of candy, prizes, and toys. 

In addition to all our egg hunt options, there will be UNLIMITED rides on a jumbo slide, jump climb & slide, obstacle courses, face painting, and other amusements. Food vendors will be on site or families are invited to bring lunches to enjoy a picnic at their favorite spot in the park. Families should also remember their cameras for great photo opportunities with the Easter Bunny. 

Tickets can be purchased in advance by stopping in or calling Ida Lee Park Recreation Center or online at idalee.org. Tickets are $10 per child in advance and $15 at the gate. The price of admission includes all attractions except food vendors. Parents pay no admission fee and children over the age of 7, who are not hunting, will be admitted free. Pre-purchasing tickets is strongly recommended in order accelerate access through the event gate. 

Parking will be available in the front fields located off North King Street (Business Route 15). The Easter Egg Hunt will be held rain or shine.
