15th Annual Beep Easter Egg Hunt Event For The Blind

For over a decade, the Dallas Junior Chamber of Commerce (“DJCC”) has hosted “BEEP” as one of their signature philanthropic events. This extraordinary event allows visually-impaired children and their families the opportunity to participate in a specially designed Easter egg hunt using custom made beeping eggs. This year the DJCC will be partnering with the DJCC Foundation and Southern Methodist University’s (“SMU”) Meadows Museum in connection with the American Foundation for the Blind, and the Texas Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services (DARS) in the hopes that more families can attend this amazing event and create memories that will last a lifetime. The day includes finger foods in the Meadows Museum with activities both inside and outside. Throughout the day kids will have the chance to hunt for eggs with parents, volunteers, and siblings throughout the venue. Once found and collected, they will exchange their beeping eggs for Easter eggs filled with toys, stickers, and candy. Thanks to our wonderful partners and generous sponsors, in addition to the egg hunt, families will also find a wide range of activities to enjoy including tactile art activities, pottery making, a toy raffle, and face painting. Last, but certainly not least, don’t miss a chance to take a picture with our wonderful Easter bunny.
