Escape Room
The ODY Library would like to invite you to participate in a SLU-themed escape room. Your team will crack codes, open locked boxes, translate clues, and more in this thrilling race against the clock!
This activity is digital-free; requiring creative use of the library materials and primary sources provided in the escape room. Work together to complete ‘missions’ pertaining to SLU, Canton, and North Country history to successfully ‘escape.’ The escape room is best suited for groups of 8-15 students per session, and typically takes about an hour to complete.
