There is not an Easter weekend. Easter moves around.
Here is a list of dates over 500 years
http://www.census.gov/srd/www/genhol/easter500freq.html
Easter can happen as early as mar 22 and as late as apr 25
I think this is the reason there are so few contests in
April. As Easter is more frequently on a Sunday in April
