Statewide Scavenger Hunt

Where’s Gordon? Scavenger Hunt Across Rhode Island!


This summer, grab your passport and hit the road—Gordon is hiding in libraries all across Rhode Island, and it’s your job to find him! From June 24 to August 30, kids can join the “Where’s Gordon?” Scavenger Hunt, a statewide adventure where you’ll visit local libraries, discover fun spaces, and collect stamps in your official Gordon passport.


Here’s how it works:

  • Pick up your passport when you sign up for Summer Reading.
  • Visit participating libraries and find Gordon.
  • Show Gordon to a librarian and get your passport stamped or stickered!


Visit 25 or more libraries to complete the challenge and earn a special completion prize, plus a chance to win the Grand Prize Raffle!


This is a fun way to explore libraries, meet friendly librarians, and see what makes each place unique. Whether you complete five libraries or fifty, you’ll have a blast on the journey.


So… Where’s Gordon? Start looking June 24!
