Cheep Cheep Pictures!!! April 15, 2017 at Dawson Park
A friend of mine scored a huge batch of easter eggs and decided that was a perfect excuse to throw a party! Please join us on Saturday, April 15th between 2 and 6pm at Dawson Park for a BBQ, Easter egg hunt, and an opportunity to get photos with some freshly-hatched baby chicks!!! Come for a few minutes, come for the whole day! There is a shelter and a washroom there so provided there isn't a full-on blizzard, this event will be a go rain or shine. Please RSVP to the Facebook Event Here or send me an email to sign up!
THE FOOD:
There will be a fire going in the shelter so you can bring your own protein for grilling or you can keep it simple and just pack sandwiches. Hot chocolate will be provided - please consider bringing a mug so we have less waste!
THE PHOTOS:
Photos with chicks (or without if you prefer) will take place between 2:00 and 3:30 pm only on a first come, first-served basis. There will be a $25 charge per sitting and $10 from each sitting will be donated to the Edmonton Humane Society. Proofs will be available online within a couple of days and the high-resolution file of your favourite image will be emailed to you; additional images from your sitting (if any) may be purchased at that time at a cost of $25/file. Come dressed in your Easter best!
THE CHICKS:
Our first mission is to ensure the safety of the chicks, so sittings will be limited to about 5 minutes to prevent these delicate babies getting too cold or stressed. These hand-raised free-range chicks come from a friend's farm and will be returned to their cozy warm coop at the end of the day. If you are interested in adopting a backyard hen, information will be available on site.
THE HUNT:
There is no cost for the Easter Egg hunt, however, it is limited to children 11 and under. The hunt will take place at 3:30 sharp. Please note that some of the chocolate in the eggs may have come in contact with nuts, so those with nut allergies next to exercise caution.
THE ENTERTAINMENT:
There will be various games, crafts, community resources, and performers on site throughout the event, including an opportunity to make giant bubbles!
