We Hid A Bunch Of Eggs Around Northwest Arkansas
NWA Daily
Over the weekend, the Easter Bunny helped us hide twenty eggs around Northwest Arkansas. If you find one, you can enter to win a $100 gift card to a local restaurant of your choice!
Find An Egg: There are five eggs hidden in each of the following places: Downtown Bentonville Square, Downtown Roger’s Frisco Plaza & Railyard Park, Downtown Springdale’s Turnbow Park & Shiloh Square, and Downtown Fayetteville Square.
Crack It Open: If you find one, post a selfie with it on Instagram or Facebook and tag @nwa.daily with the egg’s number. You’ve got all week to track one down — we’ll choose a winner this Friday. Only one entry per person, so if you find multiple, please leave them hidden for the next person.
