March 2024
 
Hello L. David,
 
From egg hunts to St. Paddy’s Day shenanigans, we’ve got so much to celebrate this March! Join us for some recreational fun as we usher in spring with family and friends around Gwinnett.
 
Celebrate an egg-ceptional holiday!
While the custom of painting hard-boiled eggs during springtime pre-dates Christianity, the origin story of egg hunts and the Easter bunny is commonly attributed to an egg-laying hare in Germany named Osterhase in the 17th century. Children made nests and left them outside for this folkloric creature to leave colored eggs, candy, and even toys. By the 19th century, egg rolling had become popular, with the White House hosting its first roll in 1878.
 
Today, the fun and games continue. Gwinnett’s egg-stra special offerings range from splashy underwater searches and a nighttime quest to traditional hunts, and the Bunny will be making an appearance at select events for photo ops. Sign up today, and don’t forget your basket!
