Who needs a Superbowl performance when you have us? Join Addie and Aimee on Easter Day for an eggs-trodinary adventure at the Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve! Get eggs-cited for a full day of frolicking in vibrant poppy fields, Easter egg crafts, bad bunny behavior and possibly some jelly bean consumption. We’ll meet in the village at 10 am on Easter morning (4/5) and drive 1.5 hours to the rolling hills of Antelope Valley. Once there, we will hop to our eggs-tra special 5.6 mile hike along the Antelope Loop trail, keeping an eye out for signs of the Easter bunny (or Bad Bunny) among the wildflower blooms. Early April is supposed to be peak superbloom viewing with the park being well known for its seasonal displays of native poppies and other wildflowers. We will have a festive lunch (ifykyk) on the trail and take our time enjoying the views before hopping back to campus around 6 pm for you to enjoy more festivities, studying or dreaming of Bad Bunny.
