Please register ONE TIME for your entire team!
Strangers from distant lands, friends of old. You have been summoned here to answer the threat of Mordor. Middle-Earth stands upon the brink of destruction. None can escape it. You will unite or you will fall.
Assemble your team of Tolkien fans to solve riddles, defeat challenges, and save Middle-Earth!
The program is geared to adults but teams can include children ages 12+ as long as there are adults as part of the team.
Start times will be staggered, and teams can begin the quest any time after 6 p.m. until 7 p.m.
