‘Escape the Yeti’ Game for Families
The library is hosting this game you can play with the whole family on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday.
There are three sessions for families with children age 6 and above, and three more for those with children age 8 and above.
In this game, everyone is excited to celebrate the holidays in a winter wonderland until all the action wakes up the slumbering Yeti.
Our “Escape the Yeti” series challenges children and families to use both teamwork and problem solving skills to “escape the room” within 30 minutes.
We’ve got more information here.
