Easter in Sacramento!

There are a ton of activities for the Easter holiday in Sacramento. For the next couple of days one can enjoy the Sacramento RiverTrain for a 2 ½ hour adventure. Departing from West Sacramento and going through Elkhorn Slough, participants can enjoy an egg hunt and bouncy castles. On the ride home, the kids will feel safe sitting next to the Easter Bunny!

And to make sure your four-legged friend does not feel like they are missing out, last week there was a special dog-Easter Egg hunt, at the Rocklin RRUFF Dog Park’s fourth annual egg hunt. Your doggie pal has to sniff around for plastic eggs that will be filled with dog-friendly treats and the one who finds the golden egg will get to take home a slew of goodies for them (and their human) best friend.

For those who like a bit of beer, hopefully they didn’t miss out on last week’s Beer and Chili Festival. At this year’s sixth annual cook-off (proceeds benefitting the Sacramento Artists Council), local food companies competed in four categories: industry, individual, vegetarian and people’s choice. Once that has been consumed, beers from Highwater Brewing and others will be competing for awards.

for those who missed these events, later on this month Sacramento is hosting its age old Scottish Games & Festival event – the third oldest of its kind in America, attracting around 10,000 revelers to celebrate Scottish cultural riches such as piping, drumming and caber toss competitions! Free for kids 7 and under, $8 for kids up to 17 and $17 for adults, this is set to be a great 2-day festival from 29 to 30th April.
