Utah Resorts Awaiting Easter Bunny
Park City Mountain Resort celebrates Easter this Sunday, March 23, with an on-mountain Easter egg hunt featuring great prizes, a little kid’s Easter egg hunt in the Kids’ Corral, and free hot beverages for adults. But if you plan to hunt for eggs, you better get on it quick. Those things are swiped almost immediately. They’re pretty much gone by 10 a.m. Resort employees lay them delicately within view of any intermediate skier throughout the hill and the locals make it a game to swipe as many as they can regardless of the rule of one egg per guest. Each egg contains prizes ranging from T-shirts to a season pass. Lifts open at 9 a.m. for the All Mountain/All Ages hunt and prizes are redeemable until 5 p.m. at the information desk located inside the Legacy Lodge. Your little ones might have better luck in the Little Kid’s Easter egg hunt in the Kids’ Corral (ages 6 and under) at 9 a.m. Get there early for your chance to meet the Easter Bunny. He arrives 8:45–9:00 a.m. to give out treats. Lifts open at 9 a.m. for the First Time Easter Egg Hunt (candy inside the eggs for kids) at the First Time lift.
The Easter Bunny also will make stops at Deer Valley Resort, Alta, Snowbird, and The Canyons Sunday, March 23.
DV guests are invited to bring a camera and have their picture taken with him around the Snow Park Lodge from 9-11 a.m.
The Canyons will have Easter Brunch at The Cabin Restaurant from 11 a.m.-4 p.m., so drop in after their kids’ hunt at 11 a.m. at Red Pine Lodge. There are two categories: Infant (4 years old) and 5-10 years old. The Easter Egg Hunt will be complimentary for participants, family, and friends. However, guests will not be able to bring ski or snowboard equipment with them on the gondola. Pick up your complimentary gondola-only passes at the Mountain Concierge. The Easter Bunny also will be hanging out at Red Pine Lodge.

I think this blogger misses some key points and also puts in way too much of his own ad hominem attacks on the effectiveness of the campaign.I don’t see the mindless machine parts, but kids are fucking influenced by adults and parents. I am not opposed to a campaign that tells/reminds parents to teach their children that respect for women is important. While it’s not going to make a chronic wife-beater suddenly change his tune, it may help remind fathers who are otherwise caught up in other things to notice when their sons are developing a disrespectful attitude towards women. An ounce of prevention.., you know?Not that the ads are beyond criticism. This one particular ad (which is one among many that the author could have shown) probably won’t do much good on it’s own and cause otherwise cynical people to entrench in their own cynicism. And, of course, by the time a boy is the age of the one pictured it’s a little late to start instilling those kinds of values.

Those messages do have influence, and they remind boys that the opposite sex (alone) is worthy of respect.

Moses? Is that you?

Agreed. Also, the title misses the point: these messages target fathers and male mentors in general, since they transmit attitudes to their children with a great deal of influence.

Those ‘medications’ are probably worse than the worst bible study. Maybe a little craziness is just what crazy people need, not poisonous fluoride based drugs.

They do need some instruction, but they are not mindless machines awaiting instructions. Kids have a very active mind of their own. The main problem they have is in communicating to adults. Sometimes I wonder if adults aren’t the mindless machines awaiting instructions.

Love returns Ee, Friesland (Netherlands)!..but why?

Unless there’s another poster showing a girl “awaiting instructions”, then this is another government bullshit campaign.

If the Ad Council knows so much about advertising to children why are their ads so ineffective?
