Riddle room adventures now open: Education briefs

Craig Christian Church will turn its youth building into a riddle room for one week beginning through May 5.
A riddle room is an immersion experience putting game players into a world of puzzles, clues, locks and obstacles. The objective is to beat the room by solving the game before time runs out. Three rooms with various themes and levels of difficulty will be offered. Proceeds will be used for the youth volleyball pit and to build a youth patio. Admission is $15 per person, $35 for families with discounts for whole room rental and groups of 16 or more people. Space is limited and reservations are required.
