Curious George is taking a culinary journey around Westchester Township this summer! Follow the weekly clues given at Thomas Library, 200 W. Indiana Avenue, Chesterton, or Hageman Library, 100 Francis Street, Porter, to find George at different ethnic restaurants in Chesterton and Porter. George may be found each week during Westchester Public Library’s summer reading program for children, Neighbors of the World.
June 15-21 is the first week to find George. The clue for week one is: Do you like gyros and baklava? This week, George is going Greek on Calumet Road.
When you find George, take a picture with him and email it to heather@wpl.lib.in.us for Thomas Library and suzanne@wpl.lib.in.us for Hageman Library. Pictures will be posted on bulletin boards at the libraries to which they are submitted. Each child photographed will also be given an additional entry slip for the Summer Excursion grand prize: a Lego digital camera! Be sure to include the name and phone number of each child pictured so entry slips may be filled out.
