The 3rd annual 2025 “Where’s Waldo?” event hosted by the Swan River Curling Club on April 26, 2025 was another successful fundraising event for the Swan River Community Center.

The event welcomed participants of all ages and backgrounds, with teams made up of co-workers, families, and groups of friends. People of all ages came together to share laughs, be active, enjoy some friendly competition and everyone made lasting memories.

There were 23 teams and approximately 150 people that entered to find the 20 Waldo’s that were dressed in Waldo costumes hiding in various locations around town, with more people joining in for supper and the after events.

Teams were given instructions along with a clue package that directed them to some of the Waldo’s and their goal was to find the most Waldo’s the quickest.

Everyone enjoyed the excitement when they spotted a Waldo and the competitive spirit came out in a lot of people. Teams returned to the rink at 6:00pm where scores were tallied, winners were announced, and prizes for all teams were handed out.

Everyone had a BBQ supper and throughout the evening both kids and adults had fun playing various backyard type games.

Thank you to our club volunteers and a special thank you to all of our sponsors, your generous donations greatly contributed to the success of this event!
