As you step into the verdant oasis of City Park, the air buzzes with anticipation, the scent of blooming flowers mingling with the sounds of excitement.

But the allure of the City Park Scramble extends far beyond the egg hunt. As melodies fill the air, and the gentle hum of the amusement park rides beckons, you’ll find yourself swept up in a day of boundless joy. From the whirl of the carousel to the gentle sway of the Ferris wheel, unlimited rides promise to elevate your experience, ensuring that the thrill of discovery is matched by the thrill of the ride.
And what’s an Easter celebration without a visit from the esteemed guest of honor? The Easter Bunny himself will be hopping by, ready to share a smile and a photo op, adding that perfect sprinkle of magic to your day.
