Starting on July 11 at 10 AM, the Algoma Public Library challenges you to answer the question "Who Trashed Our Creek!?" in our newest addition to our collection of Digital Escape Rooms. In this fun and educational escape room, participants find a creek where it seems someone has dumped a bunch of trash. We need your help to figure out who did this and how we can keep our waterways clean.

This escape room will be available on our Facebook page, our website, or by email request. This escape room is geared towards families or older children and above.

​If participants run into a problem or need a hint, email us at
alg@algomapubliclibrary.org, call us at 920-487-2295, or direct message us on Instagram or Facebook.
