Instructions for

FIND WALDO IN <insert name of city/town!

For Participating Businesses

Each player gets a “Find Waldo Local in <insert name of city/town!” passport to help them find Waldo and log their search. A player may start at any business listed on the passport; the list travels with the player. Waldo is hiding - somewhere - in all the listed businesses. He's six inches tall, and he might be in any public part of the establishment.

  • Put up the "Shop Local, Find Waldo Here" window cling in your store window or on your front door. This can happen in June, but the scavenger hunt starts July 1. [Important Note: In order to stick, the cling must have the printed side adhered to the window.]
  • Put the Waldo standee out somewhere in your establishment on July 1. Waldo can move from place to place in your business, but must be in a public area. You want people to look around your shop, but you don't want to make it so difficult that they get annoyed.
  • After a player spots your Waldo figure, either stamp his/her passport with your store stamp or sign his/her passport.
  • If players are just starting out with their first Waldo sighting, give them a new “Find Waldo Local in <insert name of city/town!” passport.
  • The first 125 players who collect store stamps/ signatures from at least 10different businesses and turn their passports intothe bookstore win an “I Found Waldo” button and a “$1 Off” coupon. Players who collect at least 20 of the 25 possible stamps/signatures win an “I Found Waldo” button and a “$1 Off” coupon PLUS they are entered in a drawing on July 31 for other larger prizes.
  • Teamplay is acceptable, but prizes, other than stickers and coupons, are single.
  • Deadline: July 30
  • The prizes so far:
  • Waldosticker books
  • A 6-volume deluxe set of Waldo books
  • And more! Would you care to adda prize item from your establishment? We'd loveto display them at the bookstore and on our website!
  • On <insert date>we'll have a Waldo party in the bookstore, inviting the press and local dignitaries to take part in the prize drawing. You, as one of the participating businesses, are especially welcome to come by for refreshments and congratulations.
