Dive into an underwater egg hunt where kids ages 8-14 can win awesome prizes and candy. Egg hunters should wear their swimsuits and bring towels, because after diving for eggs, they can swim and listen to the latest tunes until 5:30 when the pool closes.
Pre-registration is required. Noon to 2 p.m. at The Point in Ballwin. Two separate hunts will be held for ages 8-10 and ages 11-14.
Cost is $8-$10 depending on membership/residency. Parents can watch from the observation deck.
