"Where's Waldo in Bethel?" Finishes Up July 31st

Our month-long "Where's Waldo in Bethel?" wraps up on July 31st at 4:00pm with a celebration and the Grand Prize drawings donated by our 25 participating vendors. There is still time get to the 20-25 stores to qualify - enjoy.

For pictures of our "Where's Waldo Hall of Fame" click here. These are kids that found Waldo in ALL 25 locations!

Where’s Waldo? In Bethel of course.  The famous children’s book character in the striped shirt and black-rimmed specs is visiting twenty-five different local businesses throughout our community this July. Those who spot him can win prizes, including stickers, book coupons and more.

In celebration of Waldo’s longevity and popularity, his American publisher, Candlewick Press, is once again teaming up with the American Booksellers Association and independent bookstores all across the country, including Byrd’s Books here in Bethel, for some hide and seek fun as well as to encourage communities to patronize their local businesses.

There is no charge to participate, and the hunt lasts for the entire month of July, ending with a party on July 31st for those who qualify with 20-25 businesses visited on their passport. The “Passport” will be available in all 25 locations. Good luck Waldo hunters!
