Easter Egg Scramble and Marshmallow Drop

The Jaycees' Easter Egg Scramble and Marshmallow Drop is a springtime fixture in Ypsilanti for over two decades. This year's event will start at 11:30am with various games children can play for prizes.


The scrambles begin at noon for newborns to 4 year-olds, 12:15pm for children aged 5 to 8 years, and 12:30pm for 9 to 11 year-olds.


Drawings for raffle prizes and contest winners begin at 1:00pm, along with dancing with the Easter Bunny. The marshmallow drop, where a helicopter flies over Frog Island Park releasing hundreds of marshmallows for attendees to gather for prizes, ends the day at 1:30pm.
