Hill Aerospace Museum has taken a unique approach to its annual Easter event in recent years, putting on an educational scavenger hunt at its facility.

Raelyn Embleton, the museum’s education director, tells the Standard-Examiner that the event is among her favorites to organize each year.

“You see the immediate reward at the event,” Embleton said. “You can see families having a good time and, especially here at the museum, it’s a multi-generational family that comes in. So, grandparents with their kids and cousins and aunts and uncles and neighborhoods that come in together.

“It’s just the added bonus of getting some free candy and having a good time while really taking the time to look at the exhibits you don’t normally pay attention to.”

In an effort to serve families looking for the event nearest to them, the Standard-Examiner has compiled a non-comprehensive list of egg hunts and events around the area.
