The Simi Valley Youth Council will host its second virtual Escape Room; To Catch a Leprechaun, on Friday, March 12, 2021, starting at 7:00 p.m., on Zoom. This free community event, with multiple opportunities to win prizes, is intended for those 12 years and older.
“Our Escape Room is an amazing way for members of the community to come together (virtually) and have fun,” Youth Council Member and Online Activities Chair Abhishek Jagannathan said. “You can play with your friends and work as a team, or go solo and meet some new people. This is a great opportunity to just relax and have a good time, and maybe even win prizes, so join us!”
To register for this free event, go to https://bit.ly/marchescape. Prizes will be given to the winning group, as well as free random prize giveaways that have been generously provided by anonymous donors. If individuals, families, or businesses are interested in donating prizes, please contact Kristin Tignac, Youth Council Coordinator, at (805) 583-6766 or email.
Due to COVID-19 closures and the social/emotional impacts on the entire community, the Youth Council felt hosting interactive virtual events would be a creative way for teens and community members to come together while remaining safe and socially distanced.
