Henderson residents looking to spring into the season have a variety of community events to choose from, starting on Friday. According to the City of Henderson, the Spring Hop-penings lineup offers something for participants of all ages, from outdoor egg hunts to an underwater egg dive.
One of the highlights includes the Bird Preserve Egg-cellent Adventure, which invites locals to embrace the great outdoors while searching for hidden treasures. Throughout the season, with the event calendar's kickoff, families can gather at this natural sanctuary to create memories. Another mainstay, the Silver Springs Spring Festival, will be back on April 12, complete with its annual carnival filled with games and festive fun.
For those seeking a unique experience, this year introduces the Faux Carrot Craft event on April 14, specifically designed for seniors. It's an opportunity to engage in springtime creativity, though the event organizers have humorously noted the crafts are “bunny approved but not recommended for eating,” as per the City of Henderson.
Adventurous types might be intrigued by the Egg Dive on April 20 at the Heritage Park Aquatic Complex. Here, swimmers can plunge into the indoor pool in search of submerged eggs, adding a splash of excitement to traditional egg hunts. Registration for these events is now open and can be accessed online, through the new Henderson Happenings app, or by visiting any local Henderson recreation center in person.
Residents are encouraged to download the Henderson Happenings app for an efficient way to sign up for their favorite spring activities. For more information on the Spring Hop-penings and ways to participate in the seasonal merriment, attendees can refer to the city’s official website.
