Looking for Easter egg hunts? You’re in luck. We’ve pulled together a list of McHenry County Easter egg hunts, as well as some breakfasts and a few other fun events. Many of the events also feature a visit from the Easter bunny and some photo opportunities.
While many of the events are free, be sure to check the details for any events you may be interested in as some do request donations, may have fees, and some require pre-registration. Also note that most of these events will be held outside and may be subject to weather, either “rain-or-shine” or secondary dates.
The events below are listed by city and include general time details (be sure to check the specific details though as there may be specific time details for age groups, different sessions, etc.) as well as address information and a map.
As always, if you have information on an event we don’t have or information regarding one we do, please help us about by using the form below.

President and Founder of Identity Developments, LLC, the parent company of the McHenry Life website. My hope for McHenry Life is to create a resource and destination for the residents and businesses of McHenry County alike. A place where residents can discover new places to explore, fun events and ways to spend time, and then share those experiences with others. A place where businesses can connect with existing and potential customers, and not simply market their businesses, but share their own unique stories.
