Okemo hides a golden egg, holds Easter activities

Sunday, April 16, 8 a.m.—LUDLOW—On Sunday, April 16, Okemo Mountain Resort will celebrate Easter with a sunrise service and an on-mountain egg hunt. The lucky skier or snowboarder who finds a specially marked golden egg in the Easter Egg Hunt, and presents it at the Resort Services Desk, will win a special prize.

Hundreds of colorful eggs filled with wrapped candies and toys will be strewn along some of Okemo’s easiest trails, near the South Ridge Quad chairlifts, prior to opening on Easter morning. The egg hunt will begin when the lifts start running at 8 a.m. For little egg hunters, age 6 and younger, Okemo’s Jackson Gore courtyard will be the site for the Junior Easter Egg Hunt starting at 10 a.m.

Prior to the Easter Egg Hunts, Okemo will host a non-denominational sunrise service. All are welcome to meet in the Jackson Gore Roundhouse, dressed for the weather, at 6:15 a.m. Pastor Abraham Gross will lead the gathering outside to celebrate with song, a Bible reading and a short reflection. Coffee and tea (provided by the church) will be available in the Roundhouse after the service.

For more information, call 802-228-1600 or visit okemo.com.
