SAN ANTONIO -- When you think of Easter egg hunts, you normally look for what's on the ground. But one local church is doing something a bit different this year.
Northrock Church gave News 4 WOAI a sneak peek at the hundreds of eggs they will be dropping from helicopters. The pastor said this is the first time they have done this, and they wanted to put a different spin on egg hunts.
"This is one of those events that appeals to older children as well as younger children, because everyone thinks it's cool when a helicopter flies over and pours easter eggs out the side," said Paster Jonathon Moore.
Northrock church's easter egg drop is Saturday at Lopez Middle School on the practice fields. The gates open at 9:20 a.m., and the chopper will start dropping the eggs around 11:00 a.m.
The event is FREE and open to any one who wants to take part.

What could POSSIBLY go wrong?
I wonder if combat helmets will be provided?

As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!
One of the funniest lines ever on TV.

Is this going to be like that WKRP episode where they dropped turkeys from a helicopter?

Helicopters, plural. I’m thinking little remote controlled jobs. Cute gimmick.
