Chaska’s Legion Auxiliary Celebrates 73rd Annual Easter Egg Hunt


The American Legion Auxiliary Chaska Unit #57 hosted the 73rd Annual Easter Egg Hunt at Chaska City Square Park On April 4.

Children ages 0-10 years old participated in the hunt and were able to have their picture taken with the Easter Bunny. Started in the 1950s, this Easter Egg Hunt is one of Chaska’s oldest celebrations and takes place each year on the Saturday before Easter.

Members of the Chaska American Legion Auxiliary had a great time stuffing thousands of plastic eggs with candy, setting up for the event in Chaska City Square Park, and working the event.

The Auxiliary indicated that they want to thank everyone who came out and supported the event.
