Ready to Roll

The White House recently announced details on the 2010 Easter Egg Roll – an event that will bring 30,000 people from all 50 states and DC to the White House. But you don’t have to be on the South Lawn to enjoy Monday’s festivities – we’ll be livestreaming all day on WhiteHouse.gov.

This year’s theme is Ready, Set, Go!, following the First Lady’s Let’s Move! initiative – a national effort to combat childhood obesity. So in addition to the egg roll classics, there will be new activities like sports, gardening and dancing to promote healthy and active living.

The Rock ‘n’ Egg Roll Stage will feature live music with performances by Sara Bareilles, Justin Bieber, the cast of TV show Glee, Yo Gabba Gabba, Sesame Street and more. J.K. Rowling, Reese Witherspoon, Apolo Ohno, Mariska Hargitay, Dylan and Cole Sprouse, Elmo and Maria of Sesame Street and Betty DeGeneres will read on the Storytime Stage.
