Fifteenth Annual Egg Hunt at the Wyoming Historic Governors’ Mansion

 

CHEYENNE, Wyo. – April 11, 2025 – Wyoming State Parks is excited to invite families to the Fifteenth Annual Egg Hunt at the Wyoming Historic Governors’ Mansion, a cherished community tradition. The event will occur on Saturday, April 19, at 9 a.m. sharp. This free event is designed for little ones aged 2 to 4, providing a delightful morning filled with excitement and discovery.

 

This year, more than 1,500 colorful eggs will be hidden throughout the beautiful lawns of the Mansion. Each egg will contain treats and a fun fact related to the Mansion or the rich history of Wyoming. This educational twist adds an engaging element to the hunt, encouraging curiosity about local heritage.

 

"We are thrilled to host this beloved event once again," said Alexis Pratt, superintendent of the Mansion. "It’s a wonderful opportunity for families to come together, enjoy the beauty of the Mansion grounds, and connect with Wyoming’s history in a fun way."

 

Mansion staff encourage all guests to arrive early to secure their spot, as the eggs tend to vanish quickly. The festivities will kick off with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 9 a.m., marking the official start of the egg hunt.

 

Attendees should bring baskets to collect eggs and prepare for the unpredictable spring weather in Wyoming. To ensure a pleasant experience, attendees should dress in layers, wear comfortable shoes, and bring a light jacket.

 

For more information and/or questions, please contact the Mansion staff at 307-777-7878 or find them on Facebook at @HistoricGovernorsMansion. You can also learn more about upcoming events and programs at Wyoming State Parks by visiting wyoparks.wyo.gov
