The 23rd annual Lufkin Parks and Recreation Easter Eggstravaganza is this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Morris Frank Park. The free event features egg hunts for different age groups, free lunch from Pilgrim's, pictures with the Easter Bunny, and family activities like inflatables and bubble stations.

Why it matters

The Easter Eggstravaganza is a beloved annual tradition in Lufkin that brings the community together for a fun-filled day of Easter celebrations. The event provides an opportunity for families to enjoy outdoor activities, win prizes, and create lasting memories.

The details
