Creature Containment: Statewide Passport
June 15 – August 21
Dinosaurs, giant plants, carnivorous squirrels, and other awesome creatures have escaped containment and are hiding in libraries, state parks, and museums to keep cool this summer! We need your help to collect them all and get them safely home.
How does it work?
1. Pick up a containment booklet from the Junior Desk.
2. For each participating location that you visit, you receive a special stamp in your containment booklet.
3. Return your booklet with at least 5 stamps to one of the participating libraries and enter to win 2 tickets to Mystic Aquarium by Friday, August 21st.
This is NOT a requirement of the Danbury Library’s Summer Program.
