Time: 6:00 PM-8:30 PM
Location: The Bob Herzfeld Memorial Library in Benton, Arkansas- downstairs
Drop Off: 6:00 PM (The doors will close at 6:15 so it’s important to be here on time).
Pick Up: 8:30 PM (No early dismissals; if you come, you’re agreeing to stay the whole time).

Parents: There are several staff members who will be present during the Minute to Win It Night with the purpose of making sure everyone has a good time. Parents will not be allowed to stay in the building during the event. Don’t forget to come back at 8:30 and pick up your kid. Please feed your child before the event. We will have a small snack but no dinner will be provided. Snack includes pretzels, gold fish, gummy worms, skittles, and marshmallows. If there are any allergies, please speak with Jessica when signing up your child and note it in the contract.

What will we do: This is a fun game night. We will be completing different Minute to Win It challenges and competing against our friends! Remember this is a late night event; you won’t be able to use the computer, check out books, or have access to the whole library. We will have a small snack, but not dinner so feed your tweens before they come.
