Carowinds is dyeing for this world record

Carowinds is best-known for giant roller coasters like the Intimidator and Nighthawk, but the theme park is hoping to earn some Guinness-sized recognition this weekend for its massive Easter egg hunt.

Beginning at 3 p.m. Saturday, during the ninth annual "Easter Egg-stravaganza," the park is attempting to set a world record for the most amount of people dyeing Easter eggs at one time. Related activities at Carowinds this weekend will include appearances by Snoopy the Easter "Beagle" and the Easter Bunny; a Coloring Station; a DJ-hosted party for kids; and "Bunny Hop" lessons.
