Find Waldo in Chelsea

Chelsea, Michigan — Where’s Waldo? Heading back to Chelsea, of course! The iconic children’s
book character in the red-and-white-striped shirt and black-rimmed specs will once again hide
in 15 different locations throughout Chelsea’s downtown this July. Families are encouraged to
join in the fun as they search downtown Chelsea for the hidden Waldos.

Find Waldo Local is a free, family-friendly summer activity for all generations to enjoy
together, plus a wonderful way to support local businesses and celebrate community.

Anyone wishing to play the ‘Find Waldo in Downtown Chelsea’ game can pick up a card from
Serendipity Books at 119 S. Main Street. The card will list the spots to visit in 15 squares. Once
each Waldo is found, the square will be signed by participating locations. A final 16th square will
show Waldo’s pal, Wizard Whitebeard, who is also hiding and ready to be found at Serendipity
Books.

Players who complete 10 or more squares can turn in the completed cards to Serendipity Books
to claim a prize, a $1 coupon, and enter the grand prize drawing.

On Tuesday, August 12th, at 10 a.m., we will celebrate the program with a free children’s party
at the Chelsea District Library. Attendees will enjoy Waldo-themed games and activities,
generous Waldo-themed prizes, and Waldo-themed cookies. Attendance is limited to 30 guests.
The activities and games are best suited for children ages 5 to 10. Signups are essential (visit
www.serendipity-books.com to sign up.) A caregiver must accompany all children. Thank you to
the Chelsea District Library for sponsoring the customized cookies.

Candlewick Press teams up with the American Booksellers Association each year and selects
several independent bookstores nationwide for this hide-and-seek fun. Serendipity Books is
proud to have been selected once again for this game and to bring this free, family-friendly
activity to Chelsea’s downtown.
