The Easter Egg Hunt is held the weekend before Easter weekend. We have found that it is best to plan an indoor egg hunt. The past few years the Easter Eggstravaganza has been held at Central Middle School. Our attendance has averaged 200-300 children. We have inflatable activities, a magic show, crafts, pictures with the Easter Bunny, balloon animals, snacks, juice boxes and popcorn. SUMMER REC PROGRAM (seven week program)
Join the Summer Recreation Program for a fun-filled seven week program designed to keep your children entertained and occupied while interacting with many of their friends old and new. This program offers many special days with contests, parties, tournaments, field trips and more. This drop-in program is available to children registered in kindergarten through the age of 14. There are two Supervisors and a dozen or more high school aged students working at this program. This program starts at 9:00 a.m. A typical day would include playing sports games or other outdoor games then breaking for lunch (children bring their own sack lunch daily). After lunch the children may continue outdoor games, play box hockey or participate in making a craft. FAMILY FALL FESTIVAL

This event is a family-oriented afternoon of early fall fun in one of Port Huron Townships parks. In the past we have drawn crowds of 300—400 people. We offer hayrides, carnival type games for children, a magic show, fire truck tours, and inflatable activities. It’s a wonderful way to spend an afternoon with your family and a nice way to meet your neighbors in the Port Huron Township area. HOLIDAY LIGHTS DECORATING CONTEST

All Port Huron Township residents are welcome to participate in our annual holiday light display contest. Anyone may nominate themselves or their neighbors. Prizes will be awarded.
