St. Mark’s Lutheran Church Easter Egg Sale
2/23/16
by Brian and Jack Coll
This is the 98th season of St. Mark’s Church making and selling Easter Eggs. I think we’ve been ordering and eating them for 40 years now, and I’m not 100% sure, but I think some of the ladies have been making them for 97 out of the 98 years… we’re not calling anyone old, but there is a lot of experience in that room when it comes to making the Easter Eggs. It takes a delicate touch. In talking to some of the egg making crew, it sounds like they are looking for some new blood to help out. This is one of, if not Conshohockens longest standing traditions. It would be a shame to see it go away in the near future if some new volunteers can’t be found. Having said that, we need to thank everyone who is involved not only this year, but in years past.
If you are looking to order some Easter Eggs, don’t wait. You can call 610-825-3021 to place your order. They come in 3 flavors, Coconut, Mint and Peanut Butter. They are $10 per box. Once you order, there are set pick up times: Monday and Wednesday from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. and Friday mornings from 9:00 a.m – 11:00 a.m.
St. Mark’s is located at East 5th Ave. and Harry Street.
Here is the order form as well as a few photos of the egg makers in action.
