In Port Townsend, Chetzemoka Park on Jackson Street at Blaine is the place today for the 82nd annual Port Townsend Elks Lodge Easter egg hun.
The event begins bright and early at 8 a.m. today, Easter Sunday, with numerous hidden dyed eggs, hidden baskets of candy and plastic eggs with goodies inside.
Then there are the 12 golden eggs and a dozen silver eggs, each redeemable for extra-large baskets of goodies.
This public hunt is free and is geared toward children 12 and younger; egg hunters will be divided into three age groups.

■ Also today, Port Townsend’s American Legion Post 26 Ladies’ Auxiliary will hide about 1,100 eggs at the Old Legion Park on Discovery Road, accessible from Mill Road.
This free event, to start at 1 p.m., will have hunting grounds for three age groups: 4 and younger, 5 to 7, and 8 to 12 years old.
The found eggs will be redeemable for many prizes, said Selena Espinoza, president of the Ladies’ Auxiliary.
“We also have 100 little rubber duckies for the toddlers,” she added. “They are adorable.”
