More than 12,000 eggs filled with prizes from boardwalk merchants will be buried in the sand. Starts at 1 p.m. Call (732) 854-8000 or visit www.seasideheightstourism.com. Another Sunday egg hunt is at the Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center in Millville. Three-year-olds go at 10:30 a.m. and 4- to -8- year-olds at 11:30.
