Auburn celebrated Easter weekend with a big drop at The Hop.
A helicopter swooped in at Auburn Memorial Field on Saturday, dumping thousands of Easter eggs onto the synthetic turf field – just in time for children to scramble and collect them in baskets and buckets.
The three-hour festival included games, inflatables, live music, food and other activities.
