LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport Rotary Club will present its 90th annual Easter egg hunt on Sunday, April 5, at the Lake County Fairgrounds in Lakeport, 401 Martin St.

Families should gather at the main gate to the fairgrounds on Martin Street to participate in the hunt.  

The gates will open at 1:15 p.m. and Rotarians will direct children to the age-appropriate section to find their eggs.

Each year a different color is selected as a “pay egg” and children are paid $1 for every pay egg collected.

There also are silver eggs and gold eggs which reap much larger prizes when they are brought to the “pay table.”

Thanks to the courtesy and generosity of Clear Lake Redi-Mix for many years, Rotarians gather at their location in Lakeport on the Friday evening prior to Easter and color 2,880 eggs. Amazingly enough, the process takes only a couple of hours.

The Lakeport Rotary Club is proud to have brought this event to the community for 90 years.
