Seaside Heights Easter Egg Hunt Postponed

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, NJ — The annual Easter Egg hunt on the beach in Seaside Heights has been postponed to March 31, organizers announced Friday.

The Easter Egg hunt had been set for Palm Sunday, March 25, but the effects of the nor'easter forced it to be moved to Saturday, March 31. The annual Easter Promenade remains on the schedule for Sunday, April 1.

The Easter egg hunt on the boardwalk and beach is set to begin at 1 p.m. There will be 15,000 pastel eggs filled with prizes from various businesses on the Boardwalk.

There are age-specific groupings:

• Ages 0-2 years old at Hancock Avenue
• 3-4 at Blaine Avenue
• 5-6 at Sumner Avenue
• 7-8 at Hamilton Avenue
• 9-10 at Lincoln Avenue
• and children with special needs have their own area at Franklin Avenue.

The following weekend is the annual Easter Promenade. Get gussied up and break out your finest Easter bonnet to compete for prizes while you stroll the Boardwalk. Registration starts at 10 a.m. at the Visitors’ Center and there will be flowers distributed by Seaside Heights Mayor Anthony Vaz and the Borough Council.

There will be family entertainment following the contest.

At the same time, Casino Pier will have its annual Easter sale for ride credits happening, so you can load up for the summer while you're there.
