Do you remember hunting for Waldo as a kid?

Trying to find this random guy in the red and white stripes was one of the biggest challenges of my childhood.

From the books to his weirdly difficult Sega Genesis game, millennials and Gen Xers all knew that if we saw him, we'd finally won.

And now families in West Michigan have their chance to find Waldo again now that he's hiding.

Businesses in downtown Ada have all teamed up for a massive Where's Waldo hunt in real life that could earn you and your kiddos a few prizes along the way.

The hunt starts at Plumfield Books, who just celebrated their one year anniversary, where you can grab your passport. Then you have 25 locations where you can find the striped man hiding amongst their merchandise and goods.

If you're interested, grab that  passport to keep track of how many Waldos you find. If you and your family find 10 Waldos, you will receive a Waldo temporary tattoo and a $1 off coupon for a “Where’s Waldo” book.

If you want to go the extra mile, whoever finds all 25 Waldos will receive the same prizes as finding 10, but you will also be entered into a raffle with prizes like free books and potential prizes from other local businesses.

And you don't have to do it all in one day, just make sure you finish up before July 29th because all prizes will be rewarded on July 29 at 2p at Plumfield Books. Good Luck, and happy hunting!
