About the event
Visit the Waterman Center for an immersive adventure designed for 4-8 people. Follow clues, solve puzzles, and race the clock to discover the outdoor critters that have wandered into the center! The Waterman Center welcomes many guests, but sometimes outdoor critters find their way inside. Your group will have 1 hour to discover which animal is trapped in the center and set it free!

Please order your tickets at least three days in advance. Ticket sales close Fridays at 1:00 pm for that weekend's sessions.
Pricing:
