HOBOKEN – Hoboken Grace will lay out 15,000 eggs for its fourth annual free Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 12 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Mama Johnson Field, Fourth and Jackson streets, in Hoboken.
Hoboken Grace, a nondenominational Christian Church in Hoboken, NJ is providing the candy-stuffed eggs for children ages 1 – 12.
