'LPL’s QR Fairy Tale Quests About Town'

Are you up for tackling a quest? Are you good at finding things? Well if you are, then this activity is for you! There are 8 fairy tale pictures located outside around town. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find all of them! When you locate a picture, scan the QR code and then answer the questions.

Sound easy (heh, heh)? Well, I guess we’ll see how brave and determined our LPL families are! Good luck! So stay on the lookout for these pictures, we’ll leave them up for most of the summer. I will continue to post hints for finding various pictures to help you with your quest.

(Here’s a hint for finding picture #5:  "No matter how old you get, may you always stop to fill your pockets with smooth stones, empty snail shells & other little treasures."-Nicolette Sowder.  And what better place to do that than at a lovely nature trail right off Rte 2A)
(Here’s a hint for finding picture #4:  “You can't buy happiness, but you can buy ice cream, and that's kind of the same thing.” Janet Lee Logan.)
(Here’s a hint for finding picture #3:  "My town hall meetings are with friends and neighbors, fellow Americans. We engage." Sheila Jackson Lee.  We have a very lovely old New England building for all our 'town' information!)
(Here’s a hint for finding picture #2: “My opinion is that a school with no playground isn't a school at all.” Mohith Agadi. Luckily we have(had) one....Remember?)
(Here’s a hint for finding picture #1: “Libraries store the energy that fuels the imagination.  They open up windows to the world and inspire us to explore and achieve, and contribute to improving our quality of life. Libraries change lives for the better.” Sidney Sheldon.  This is an easy one to get you started!)
