Belen's Hub City Egg Hunt Returns to Eagle Park for Families This Spring

Eagle Park in Belen hosted the annual Hub City Egg Hunt on Thursday, bringing together families with children ranging from toddlers to 12-year-olds for one of the city's signature spring traditions.

The City of Belen Parks & Recreation Department organized the event, which drew kids across multiple age groups for a structured egg hunt and community Easter activities. The department announced the gathering through a NewsFlash posting ahead of the event, marking the return of a celebration that has become a seasonal fixture for Belen families.

Eagle Park, situated in the heart of the Hub City, served as the backdrop for the festivities. The age range accommodated by the event, spanning from the youngest toddlers to preteens, reflects the Parks & Recreation Department's effort to make the egg hunt inclusive for households with children at different developmental stages rather than narrowing it to a single group.

The 2026 edition continued Belen's tradition of centering community programming around family milestones, with Easter providing one of the most visible opportunities for the city's parks system to bring residents together at a shared outdoor space. For a community the size of Belen, events like the Hub City Egg Hunt represent a consistent investment by the Parks & Recreation Department in programming that reaches across generations within the same family on the same afternoon.
