The 2026 Inclusive Community Easter Egg Hunt Has a Home

We are officially planting our eggs at The Vineyard at Hershey, our Hosting Sponsor for 2026. If you have ever tried to herd excited children with baskets while also keeping the vibe joyful and the logistics sane, you already know why this matters.

Last year we hoped for 25 kids. 500 came. This year, we are doing it with more space, more intention, and more accessibility so every child can join the magic.

Promoted across Harrisburg, Carlisle, and Hershey. One event. One huge day. One very grateful village.

Sponsor the 2026 Inclusive Community Easter Egg Hunt

There are two kinds of community events. The ones that quietly happen… and the ones that accidentally become the thing everyone talks about for the next six weeks.

Last year, we planned a sweet little egg hunt. We were aiming for 25 kids. We got 500. We learned a lot. Chief among those lessons: families are hungry for inclusive, joyful, well-run community magic, and when you build it with love, they will come with baskets.

This year, we are planning with more space, more structure, and more accessibility so every child can participate in a way that works for them. And we are inviting a few amazing local brands to be part of the story families will actually remember.

Why Sponsor

This is not passive advertising. This is your brand inside a memory. Families remember the businesses that helped make the day run, the ones that showed up, and the ones who made their kid feel seen.

• High-intent families: Parents actively looking for kid-friendly experiences and trusted local businesses
• Extended visibility: Promotion before the event, engagement on event day, and recap content after
• Community goodwill: Alignment with inclusion, accessibility, and real family connection
• Photo-worthy moments: Families share what they love. Your brand can be part of that.

Sponsorship Opportunities

These sponsorships help create a calm, joyful, accessible experience for families. They support the things parents notice. The moments kids remember. And the behind-the-scenes details that make a big day work for every child.

All sponsorships include table or tent space at the egg hunt.

Partners & Community Participants

All current summer camp and advertising partners are invited to participate and table at the egg hunt at no cost (with Bronze Egg Level recognition).

We encourage (but do not require) a donation of 100 eggs or more, and ask all participants to help with light set-up and tear-down on event day.
