Hey teens, take a front row seat in the ultimate showdown: book vs. movie! Every month, we'll feature a teen book that's been made into a movie. Come to the book club to chat about the book and eat snacks. OR come to movie night to watch the movie version and eat snacks. OR, come to both!
Sign up your team (or yourself) to play ten rounds of trivia covering a range of topics from nature to sports and everything in between. Bring your own snacks and beverages and compete for silly prizes and bragging rights. The room opens at 6:30 p.m., trivia starts promptly at 7 p.m.
