So much of what we have and celebrate in Wells Branch came from this man’s hard work and inspiration. Our community would not be what it is today had we not had Chuck here to lead us.
WBNA Easter EggSaturday, April 16, 10:30am | Come Early!
The Homestead at KF Park | 2106 Klattenoff Dr.
Hop into Spring! Join your friends, neighbors and The Easter Bunny, himself, at the annual Wells Branch Easter Egg Hunt. “Hunts” will be by age group and begin at 10:30am. Plan to come early and visit with the Easter Bunny or have fun at our craft table.
We are thrilled to be able to bring back the traditional Easter Egg Hunt. Last year, we hosted the Bunny Hop Along as a drive through event. That was our first post-pandemic event. While it was a huge hit with the kids, we’re excited to be back! Since it’s been 3 years since a traditional hunt, please review the event guidelines.
This is a community event and ALL Wells Branch residents and their invited guests are welcome. We want to remind everyone to be respectful and allow all of the children to have enough space and time to safely collect eggs. No yelling, stealing eggs, reaching under the tape and filling baskets before we start, or busting down the tape and charging ahead before your age group is called. We need parents to set the example. We’ve added a second group for the little guys as that had an issue a few years ago. ONE parent will be allowed in to help with the two youngest age groups (0-18mos & 18mos-3yrs.) We ask that you respect this restriction. All other age groups must hunt on their own. Feel free to coach ahead of time. There will be 7 minutes between “hunts” to allow parents of multiple children to navigate the crowds. Please, only allow your children to hunt with their respective age group. If for some reason, your child ends up without many eggs, please approach any of our WBNA volunteers in bunny ears, they will have extra goodies.
Last, but not least, please remember that this event is put on by volunteers. We spend weeks getting ready and usually stuff 8,000-10,000 eggs (if you are wondering, yes we recycle those eggs.) It’s no small feat. So, if a volunteer asks something of you, please be respectful of their requests.
We love our neighbors and our community. We’re asking for everyone’s help in advance in creating an enjoyable experience for all involved. Please help us and remember to recycle your eggs before you leave.
We need volunteers to help things run more smoothly. Anyone whose kids have aged out of the hunt, or older teens who need service hours, we would be so appreciative of your time! Please contact us for more information at info@wbna.us.

Whether you are a business or a homeowner, you need to find a way to dispose of your commercial or residential waste. There are many options available, including dumpster rentals, roll-off containers, and skip bin. Mini skips cairns are a popular option for small businesses and homeowners who need to get rid of a moderate amount of waste. They are typically smaller than dumpsters and roll-off containers, making them easier to transport and maneuver. Mini skips can be used for a variety of waste materials, including construction debris, furniture, appliances, and yard waste. When choosing a skip bin in Cairns, it is important to consider the size of the skip, the type of waste you need to dispose of, and the delivery and pickup fees. You should also make sure that the company you choose has a good reputation and offers a reliable service. Searching for “cleaners near me“? Look no further than Diamond Home Support.
