Brady said she loves putting on the event for that same reason. "I probably came here when I was a little kid and did this".

Sophie Dauncey finds an egg hiding in the bushes at the Davisburg Community Hall's first ever Easter Egg Hunt on April 15. "Probably the tradition", she said, already playing the long game at 11. It started way back in the 1700s when the Pennsylvania Dutch believed in an egg-laying hare called Oschter Haws which eventually became the Easter Bunny who became popular not for laying eggs, but of creating nests.
