The Joe Green Memorial
Egg Hunt
Open To Child Relatives Of Willington Residents
The Easter Bunny Comes To Town!
Every year, on the day before Easter, the Willington Hill Fire Department volunteers host a massive egg hunt for the town's children. This family-favorite event attracts around 200 children and their families every year. The event, candy, bike raffle, and parent's door prizes are free!
Proceeds from the optional parent's raffle support the following year's event.
This event is held at the Willington Hill FD
24 Old Farms Road, Willington, CT. 06279
Over 5,000 Eggs
We "hide" (more like cast-about) around 5,000 plastic eggs across our grounds for attendants to retrieve. It's more of an egg scramble than a hunt (pun intended), but it's all great fun!
Ten of those eggs hold special tickets redeemable for a Munson's chocolate bunny!
Bike Raffle
Every child get's a chance to win one of our raffle bikes. Helmet voucher is included, redeemable at Pedal Power, so you can get a properly fitted helmet for your winner!
Please enter children into the bike drawing of your choice, found inside the fire hall.
Parent's Raffle
Parents who would like to try their luck can purchase raffle tickets for the parent's raffle. We have a wide array of toys, handmade items, gift cards and more. Proceeds benefit the hunt.
Tickets are $1 each. We take Cash, Check, Venmo, PayPal, or credit cards via the QR code at the raffle table.
