Maysville Baptist will be hosting a D-Egg-Cathalon Event Saturday, April 4 at 1 p.m. At this fun event, children will compete on teams in 10 different field events including the javelin throw, relay races, egg balancing, and more. Children in K – sixth grade will participate in the field events while younger children ages 2 – preK can enjoy an egg hunt and a bounce house. Each child will receive a candy bag. This event is free and open to the public.
