Womrath Bookshop's Where's Waldo Search Under Way in Bronxville Stores

By Staff

Jul. 10, 2019:  The big search for Waldo is under way. Waldo is spending most of the month of July in Bronxville, but he hasn’t let anyone know exactly where he is hiding. 

When the folks at Womrath Bookshop got wise to Waldo, they set up a search headquarters.

Young detectives are encouraged to sign up at the bookstore to find Waldo, the elusive, smiling--some might say smirking--character in the popular children's book series Where's Waldo? wearing his trademark red-and-white cap and round eyeglasses. 

Armed with a list of some 24 stores where Waldo might be hiding, the young sleuths are encouraged to visit local merchants as well as the Bronxville Public Library during the month of July to find Waldo. 

At the end of the search on July 26, there will be a party with prizes at Womrath Bookshop.

For more information, call Womrath Bookshop at 914-337-0199 or stop by the store at 76 Pondfield Road.

Bronxville Public Library
Bronxville Public Library

The Bronxville Public Library traces its origins back to 1875, when it was a small lending library housed in a room attached to the “Bronxville Model School.” The Library was officially chartered in 1906 and moved into the Village Hall Building. The needs of the library grew with the town and, in 1942, a new standalone building was erected, which is where the Library is today. Over the years, the Library was renovated and expanded to meet the needs of the community.

The Library has wonderful resources for adults and children and offers a comfortable and relaxing environment. The Library also houses a fine art collection, consisting principally of Bronxville painters and sculptors.

The Library offers special events, art exhibitions, and programs for adults, young adults and children. All events are open to the public, unless otherwise indicated.
