Now here’s a fun option for the adults … as well as the kids. Our friends at GarWoods Grill and Pier started a great tradition years ago with the unveiling of their now oh-so-popular “Adult” egg hunt (i.e. lovely adult libations and such). The kids will be just as delighted with their festivities that include the potential to take home some overstuffed Easter Baskets and eggs as well.
