Easter Egg Hunts Top The List Of East Texas Weekend Events – April 8 + 9
The Easter bunny will be laying a bunch of candy-filled eggs all around East Texas this weekend. Some of those eggs will have special prizes and even money inside them! Hope you find that golden egg and are rewarded handsomely for the big find!
After what seems like a week of rain, the weekend will be pretty nice. Saturday's forecast (at this time) calls for a slight chance of rain and a high near 70, but Easter Sunday will be gorgeous. Partly cloudy skies with a high of around 74.
In addition to all the Easter egg hunts this weekend, this is your final weekend to take in the Tyler Azalea and Spring Flower Trail and you can stroll through a couple of different markets that are open this weekend.
