Easter Egg Hunt At Veterans Park Cancelled

Oconee County rather quietly has cancelled its Easter Egg Hunt originally scheduled for April 19–the day before Easter–at Oconee Veterans Park.

The web site of the Oconee County Parks and Recreation Department contains the simple announcement that the egg hunt “will not be held this year due to park conflicts.”

The Visit Oconee web site run by the tourism department of the county, which has organized the egg hunt in collaboration with parks and recreation in recent years, does not list the cancellation.

Peggy Holcomb, director of tourism for the county, told me today I was the first person who has even asked her about it.

The Oconee Enterprise, a sponsor of the event last year, has opted so far not to write about the cancellation.
