Come participate in a real-life escape room adventure! You and your team will work together to uncover clues, solve puzzles, and hopefully escape the fictional themed room within 60 minutes! There is no special knowledge required to play, just be curious, observant and think outside of the box!

Exit to Escape in Dublin have three different themed rooms to choose from: 1) Quest for the Crown (easier), 2) The Magician’s Secrets (a little spooky), and 3) Wild West Jail Escape (hardest). If you have already done an event with Exit to Escape and want to be placed in a different room, please indicate so on the comments section during signup.

4th of July is right around the corner and you know what that means…the Kiwanis Danville 4th of July Parade!

This is a great service project in our community and a lot of fun! If you are in town and would like to march in the parade, leading it off no less, and help out with trash collection, please sign up to help. This is one of the outing events where we REALLY need adult help. The more adult help, the better! We are in need of adults to help at the barricades, the barricades are along the parade route so you’ll be able to watch your scout march in the parade. This is a great way for all you parents to get involved with one of the Troop activities and help give back to our sponsoring charter organization, Kiwanis!
