We are going to all play Super Smash Brothers (Switch) and Mario Kart (on the N64s provided), each player getting their name on a raffle ticket for every five minute round they win (SSB) or every 50cc course they win (MK). One prize for the most effectively lethal player (to be determined by Youth Librarian Katy’s judgement of skill, enthusiasm, and growth) and one prize for the winner of the raffle.
Remember that this is for fun, sometimes game systems glitch, and that this is a walk-in event so the winner announced does NOT have to be present at the time of the raffle drawing at the end of the program. Winner will be contacted if not present.
