Hunt for Easter eggs at Salisbury University

If you're looking for Salisbury's big Easter egg hunt, head to Salisbury University on March 31.

The Salisbury Easter egg hunt traditionally held downtown will be hosted this year by the Salisbury University Honors College on the Holloway Hall lawn.

The egg hunt was first organized by the Salisbury Arts & Entertainment District, and the Honors College hopes the move to campus will provide additional room to serve the 1,500-2,000 children and families the event has attracted in recent years.

This year’s hunt is scheduled 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday. Parking is available at SU’s Blackwell and Commons parking lots on Camden Avenue, Route 13 parking lots near Conway and Perdue halls and the Patricia R. Guerrieri Academic Commons, the Guerrieri Student Union lot on Dogwood Drive and parking garage on Wayne Street.
