The FamilySearch Discovery Center is free and is open to the public. <br> | |||
Because the Discovery Center Experience is a popular evening activity scheduling a visit ahead of time will result in a better experience, especially during peak evening visiting hours.<br> | |||
We recommend scheduling groups of at least 6 and no more than 15 visitors for each session. <br> | |||
If your group is larger than 15, make multiple reservations to accommodate all the people in your group. (For example, for a group of 25, please reserve one time slot for 15 and another slot for the remaining 10.) Start times are every 30 minutes. <br> | |||
Children's Groups are ages 8-10 and Youth Groups are ages 11+. There are many engaging experiences that leaders will want to have with their groups. So we encourage all leaders to remain with their groups the entire experience. | |||
Visitors typically spend 30 to 45 minutes to complete the experience. <br> | |||
The scheduling page indicates available dates and times. You can check availability without placing a reservation and then return later to make a selection.<br> | |||
