ASHLAND — The Ashland County Park District invites families to celebrate spring with the 2025 Park Eggstravaganza, happening from March 17 through April 21.

This unique, bird-themed scavenger hunt is a perfect opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors while learning about local wildlife.
Participants will explore six local parks, searching for hidden egg stations along accessible trails. Each station features educational displays about birds, along with a secret code. Once participants collect all the codes and crack the hidden message, they can turn in their completed form to the Park Office at 1301 Park Street to claim a prize!
Parks to Explore:
- Avian Acres — 1 station
- Ashland Fire Company Nature Cabin — 1 station
- Byers Woods — 2 stations
- Freer Field — 2 stations
- Hurdle Waterfowl Park — 1 station
- Tom Kruse Wildlife Conservation Park — 1 station
All stations are located along accessible trails, ensuring a fun and inclusive experience for
children of all ages. Not only is it an exciting egg hunt, but it’s also a chance to learn about
native birds we share our parks with!
