Spring Flings in Berkeley for Easter

Egg hunts are not just for little ones – big kids can get in on the action too with a Berkeley Teen Flashlight Egg Hunt at Grove Park on March 29th, 2024. A special egg hunt in the dark includes glow-in-the-dark eggs. Bring your flashlights and a bag to carry your prizes. You won’t want to miss this event because the prize is a Nintendo Switch!
