South Cape Business Easter Egg Hunt set for Saturday
Families invited to come out, collect goodies and get photos taken at the Easter Bunny photo booth
Peter Cottontail and an afternoon of free Easter fun throughout South Cape Coral takes place this weekend.
South Cape Hospitality & Entertainment Association is putting on the fifth annual South Cape Business Easter Egg Hunt this Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., which includes a free Easter Bunny Photo Booth.
Parents can bring the kids for a fun-filled day where they can hop around to participating businesses and fill their baskets with treats.
“It’s one of our favorite family events and we love seeing everyone come together to enjoy the community and support local businesses. Each year it gets bigger and better,” said SCHEA spokesperson Shannon Quinn. “This event is a win-win, as attendees get a fun adventure through the South Cape and often come upon businesses they’ve never visited before. For our local shops and restaurants, it’s an amazing way to introduce themselves to new customers, build existing relationships and leave a positive first impression. Plus, many families return later to support the businesses they discovered during the event.”
Participating locations will hand out Easter eggs packed with candy, trinkets, and even special surprises such as gift cards to favorite local establishments and businesses.
“This event offers the perfect opportunity for families to get out and explore South Cape in a fun, interactive way,” Quinn said. “Kids get to enjoy the thrill of the Easter egg hunt, while parents discover new shops, restaurants and local spots they may not have known about. It’s a great way to spend quality time together while supporting the local economy.”
The event provides safe and easy travel, as a limo bus will be available to shuttle families safely across Cape Coral Parkway, running between Big John’s Plaza and Zak’s Jewelry.
Attendees can capture the moment by stopping by MM Brands (1322 Lafayette St., Unit B) for a free photo with the Easter Bunny.
“We hope attendees walk away with lasting memories, full Easter baskets and a greater love for the South Cape,” Quinn said. “Whether it’s finding a new favorite store, trying a new restaurant or just enjoying the festive atmosphere, we want families to feel connected to the community and excited to return.”
Participating locations include: Diamond Dave’s Creative Jewelry, Family Traditions Home Decor & Furnishings, The Greek Spot, HOTWORX, John Michael’s Diamond & Jewelry Studio, Just Lovelee Boutique, Karma & Coconuts, Lehne Burger, MM Brands, Noela Chocolate & Confections, Noe’s Jewelry, Penny’s Coffee, Perk & Brew, A Pooch’s Paradise Pet Grooming, RE/MAX Nautical Realty, Sidecar Treats, Simply Golden Boutique, South Cape Entertainment & Hospitality, Sweet Spot, Trebing Tile & Carpet, and Zak’s Jewelry. Additional participating locations may be added before Saturday.
“Our local businesses look forward to this event every year,” Quinn said. “It’s a fun and engaging way for them to connect with families, share in the holiday spirit and show what makes South Cape such a special place. Many go all out with decorations, costumes and treats. The event is something everyone can enjoy.”
Kids should bring their own baskets or bags to collect eggs. SCHEA will have some bags at the Easter Bunny photo booth, but they are not festive. SCHEA encourages families to bring their own to match the event festivities.
