The egg hunt consisted of two different age groups of children hunting for eggs in Douglass Park. The children were split up so children older than 7 would go together and the children younger than 7 would go together also, giving each child a fair chance of finding eggs.

Along with separating children under 6 from those aged 7 through 12 into two different egg hunts, organizers grouped children of the same age together on the field to allow younger children a fairer opportunity to gather eggs.
