You're invited to Easter In El Prado Park! The Old Torrance Neighborhood Association was founded in 1981. And . . . since its inception, OTNA has hosted Easter in El Prado Park -- 2009 marks our 28th consecutive year! It has become a tradition in our neighborhood. In fact, people that used to come to this event as a child are now bringing their children.
On Easter Sunday, at 10:00 AM, Mr. & Mrs. Bun will arrive at El Prado Park in the bright blue "Bunny Mobile." Both will greet the 100+ kids, pose for Kodak moments, and then . . . Mr. Bun will lead the children in the Bunny Hop. After that, the Easter "egg" (candy) hunt begins - the kids LOVE it! (The parents love it too, 'cause you're outta there by 10:30 AM.)
Bags will be handed out to each child prior to Mr. & Mrs. Bunny's arrival. If your child (niece, nephew, grandson and/or granddaughter) would prefer to bring their Easter basket to collect the candy, they are more then welcome to do so.
We have three areas ribboned-off in the park, so the younger kids are separate from the older kids (this event is for children 11 years of age, or younger). Two areas have one golden egg hidden amongst the candy. Whoever finds the golden egg, takes it straight to Mr. Bun in exchange for an Easter basket brimming with trinkets and treats!
There is a special section called "Peggy's Patch" for children ages 3, and under. This area is dedicated to OTNA's past President, Peggy Basile, who received her "angel wings" on Easter, three years ago.
