Thousands of eggs will fall from the sky as Glad Tidings Church hosts its annual Egg Ocoee.

The event takes place from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday April 4, at the church, 2009 Fullers Cross Road, Ocoee.

A helicopter will drop eggs onto the fields, and children will have the opportunity to hunt 20,000 plastic Easter eggs.

The church will have three egg drops from which to choose, and children will be divided by age into four zones. Once the eggs are on the field, children will be able to hunt for eggs in their designated age area.

Attendees also will be able to snap pictures with the Easter Bunny, and enjoy games, inflatable bounce houses, and more.
