The Kitsap Regional Library 80th Anniversary Mug Hunt is on April 5-20!
Grab your library card, gas up the car, inflate your bike tires, check the bus schedule, or lace up your walking shoes—no matter how you plan to get there—adventure awaits you at the Library!
April 5-20, 280 total mug tokens representing limited-edition mugs will be hidden across Kitsap Regional Library branches, waiting to be discovered. Find the mug token, and claim your mug! Limit one per person so more people can join the fun.
Designed to Celebrate Community
Each mug features one of nine location-specific designs created to capture the essence and beauty of each library’s community and history. Every branch will only have its own design available for you to find! These special mugs were made possible thanks in large part to the generous donors of the Kitsap Regional Library Foundation.
How it Works
- Visit a branch.
- Seek and find a mug-shaped token.
- Bring the mug token to a staff person.
