Can you escape?

Join us on Tuesday, October 25th, at 6 p.m. for the Escape Room Challenge!  After entering the room and going over the rules, the doors will be locked behind you.  60 minutes is on the clock!  You'll need to search the room for clues and work together to solve puzzles that will lead to your escape.  Are you up to the challenge?
