Easter Egg Treasure Hunt

Easter Egg Treasure Hunt with a difference.

Here is an Easter Egg Treasure Hunt that everyone can do, even with their eyes shut! All you need to do is make your way to Quaich in East Horsley, or The Stockyard at Horsley station and you can buy one of these lovely glass eggs by Adam Aaronson Glass Studio for yourself. These will be available from Wednesday 23rd March.

This fundraiser is part of the Waterbabies Challenge, which Adam Aaronson has been very excited about and proud to support over the past two years. Record breaking Atlantic rower Callum Gathercole has been raising funds for three charities and our Easter Egg Hunt aims to help reach his target, with the entire proceeds being donated to Brace – Brain Tumour Research.

Each egg costs £10 and they are available from Quaich in East Horsley and The Stockyard at Horsley Station. The eggs are sold on a lucky dip basis. They’re all pre-wrapped, so you just hand over your tenner and rummage. You can have as many goes as you like at £10 per go, but there are only 60 eggs available, so get your skates on!

The Treasure:
Hidden in the lucky dip are six special eggs. These have special stars engraved on the base. The starred eggs are the Treasure you are searching for.

If you find an egg with a single star, you win another egg, free. There are three of these eggs, mixed in with the others.

If your egg has two stars, you can redeem this against a “make your own paperweight session” during Surrey Artists Open Studios in June http://adamaaronson.com/hot-glass-taster-sessions/ There are three eggs with two stars, hidden among the others.

The colours are assorted and there is no limit to how many you can buy, while stocks last.

Update: Wednesday 23 March, 8.30pm
The eggs have been incredibly popular and earlier today, The Stockyard and Quaich had virtually sold out, raising almost £600 for Brace, so many thanks to Su and Robin for handling the sales. So we have packed up another batch of around 50 eggs which have been selling today, on the same basis, with special stars hidden among them. So if you haven’t yet got one, there are still some left, and we hope to reach a four figure sum for the charity.

Update: Friday April 1st. We’ve exceeded our original target and have now raised £860. There are still a few eggs left at Quaich and these will be available until close of business on Saturday 2nd April. It would be great to reach £1,000…
