To participate, just swing by the bookstore and grab a “Find Waldo in Winchester” search list with the names of all the participating businesses and collect an “I Found Waldo at _____" card for each Waldo you spot.

If you find Waldo figures in at least 16 businesses, you will win a Waldo button and a chance at other giveaways. The grand prize is a complete six-volume set of Waldo books. A drawing will be held at Book End's Waldo party starting at 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 31.
