Camp Helen State Park: Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt

Camp Helen State Park invites you to their first annual Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt. Scheduled for Saturday, April 16th, guests are encouraged to visit the park anytime between 10AM - 2PM, pay $4 park admission, ask volunteers for an egg hunt card, and enjoy a color-coded hunt that encourages kids to explore and learn about the park at their own leisure. 

The scavenger hunt will have 3 different age groups: 0-3, 4-6, and 7-12. After finding an egg of each color, children can turn them in for a special prize.

That’s What Cheese Said and Gelato Love food trucks will be in the park from 11Am - 3PM. There is even rumored to be a surprise appearance by a celebrity bunny. More information can be found on the Friends of Camp Helen Facebook page.

Camp Helen State Park is host to fun events throughout the year such as the Fall Festival, kayak paddle tours, Americana music series, summer movie nights and much more. These special events are sponsored by the Friends of Camp Helen State Park. Follow Friends of Camp Helen State Park on Facebook for updates on park events. 

Camp Helen State Park is located at 23937 Panama City Beach Parkway, just west of the Phillips Inlet Bridge on the Bay County and Walton County line. The park is bordered on three sides by the Gulf of Mexico, Phillips Inlet, and Lake Powell, which is one of the largest coastal dune lakes in Florida. The great thing about Camp Helen is that it has it all – wooded nature trails, tranquil lake scenery, and an expansive, open white-sand beach.
