Easter time promotion idea

[Steve]

This restaurant held an Easter egg hunt on it's property to celebrate Easter. What a neat idea! I bet if you had some property, you could do this too and build goodwill within your community.

Have you ever seen any other businesses do other activities to promote their company at Easter time?

Egg hunt filled with strategies (http://www.seacoastonline.com/news/04092007/mainenews-ph-y-egghunt.html) - "I only got tackled for my first egg," said Ryan Peters, 10, of Wells, as he cashed in an Easter egg for a large bag of Tootsie Rolls at Clay Hill Farm.

Ryan was one of nearly 100 kids who scrambled for eggs on the snow-covered lawn at the restaurant late Sunday afternoon. He was running and reaching for a yellow egg when his pal, Cody O'Brien, dove in for the prize and snatched it out from underneath him.

I think that it is a good idea.

Our city here does an Easter Egg drop. A plane flies over the local airport and drops eggs out of the plane. Kids then can take the eggs and cash them in for prizes. They have areas marked out for different age groups, so larger and older kids are not pushing around the younger ones.

That is awesome! I never heard of such an event! I bet the kids love it.
