• Group reservations after 7:30 p.m. are available Tuesday-Thursday only at the present time. If groups wish to make a reservation on these days outside of regular Center hours reservations must be made a minimum of two weeks in advance to allow planning for staffing.

• Suggested group size is a maximum of 15 plus leaders. Please make sure enough parents/leaders accompany the group to provide assistance and monitor computer/equipment usage during the visit.
• Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your scheduled reservation.
• No food or drink is allowed anywhere in the Center with the exception of the Snack Area.
• After submitting a reservation request, please wait to receive a confirmation phone call from the Center to verify the reservation.

Preparing for Your Visit

• If group members have a FamilySearch account, make sure they bring their account usernames and passwords.
• If group members do not have an account, help them set one up before coming by clicking this link: Create a FamilySearch account
  • Parents who wish to create an account for a child under 13 can do so by following these instructions: Creating an Account for a Child Under 13
  • If parents would like to have their child use the parent account in the Discovery Center, see instructions below.
• Before coming, make sure group members add a connection to at least one deceased ancestor on their tree. A good rule is to go back four generations if possible.
  • Assistance is available at the Center should you need help building group member trees. However, they will need to bring information for their ancestors.
• If group members have a smart device with a camera to scan a QR code, logging into any of these areas will be much quicker and easier.
  • If parents desire a child to use the parent account in the Discovery Center, they may generate an authorization code by clicking on the following link and logging into FamilySearch prior to the child leaving home: Authorization to Log In.
  • After the parent logs in, they will see a generated code. Send the code with your child to the FamilySearch Center. The code will be valid for two hours after activation at the FamilySearch Center.
  • If group members are very young, leaders could share group photos with parents of group members privately via email.
