The Legacy Continues

Glendive’s annual Easter Egg Hunt has roots dating back to the early 1990s. The tradition began when the local Kiwanis organization first organized a community gathering to celebrate Easter with families across town. Over the years, it has grown in both spirit and attendance, becoming a highlight of the holiday season in Glendive.

Collaboration Across Generations

Today, Kiwanis members team up with the Dawson County High School Key Club to make the hunt come to life. This intergenerational partnership brings together seasoned community leaders and local teenagers eager to make a difference. The result is a day dedicated not only to fun and games but also to strengthening ties between Glendive’s younger and older generations.

A Community Gathering at Lloyd Square

Designated areas of Lloyd Square fill with colorful eggs and delighted children as families gather to share in the excitement. Searching for hidden treats becomes an annual ritual, where parents encourage their little ones and volunteers ensure every child has an unforgettable holiday experience. While it’s a simple concept—eggs placed around a park—it remains a powerful way to foster camaraderie and local pride.

Looking to the Future

As the tradition persists, Kiwanis and Key Club members continue to refine offerings and maintain the spirit of celebration. The annual Easter Egg Hunt stands as a testament to Glendive’s commitment to its youth and its heritage. With each passing year, the community comes together to honor the legacy begun in the early 1990s, keeping the joy of Easter alive for the next generation.
