Last year, the event hosted more than 300 families, with attendees taking part in the Easter egg hunt and drawings for gifts, including items for Easter baskets, bikes, and more.

“The community looks forward to this event each year,” Brice-Hollis said. “Our goal is to continue to grow this event each year, and this being our fifth year, we are so excited for this family fun day.”

Organizers said that if weather conditions are inclement, the event will be held at the YWCA.
