On Sunday, children of all ages can hunt for eggs and leave with other prizes in their Easter baskets.
The Braided Faded Crew will host its ninth annual Hood Hunt on Easter, April 17, at 2 p.m. in Fannie Robinson Park.
“Something different happens every single year. Each year, the community comes together and supports us more and more,” said Shareeta Fairley, founder of the Braided Faded Crew.
Similar to previous years, there will be five different Easter egg hunts. The hunts will be separated by age categories and will end with the mega hunt, which includes all ages.
Each hunt will feature money eggs and vouchers for braids and haircuts in each hunt, except for the baby hunt. In addition, Fairley said there will be unique prizes incorporated into the hunt this year.
“You might win a custom cake, a set of cupcakes, a Braided Faded Crew shirt. You may win a custom tumbler or something like that,” she said.
At this year’s hunt, the Crew will honor original member Frank Fields, who passed away in February.
Prior to the mega hunt, there will be a balloon release in Field’s memory. Guests are encouraged to bring a balloon to participate.
Donations are still being accepted for the Hood Hunt. Crew members will be available to accept donations, or they can be dropped off at the Taylor Press.
Anyone who would like to donate can contact Fairley through Facebook messenger or by calling 512-736- 7249.
