Meeting Room (75)

Test your sleuthing skills in this fun collaborative game.

For years a supplement called “Euphorigen” has been used by the very wealthy to boost brain activity, which the Government now wants to introduce into the public water supply. A prominent scientist has recorded a statement about whether or not the claims are to be believed. Track down whatever information you can on Euphorigen to uncover the truth and spread the word!

This session starts at 11:00 a.m.

Registration begins on Wednesday, December 17 at 9:00 a.m.

About the branch

The Independence Branch began as a collection operated out of City Hall. After outgrowing that space, the library moved into its own facility and since 1992 the branch has been a part of the city’s municipal complex that includes a recreational facility and senior center.
