Teen Battle of the Brains: State-Wide Smackdown

  • Thursday, December 17th from 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM

Join us for the Second Teen Battle of the Brains: Statewide Smackdown. Show off your smarts and compete, via Zoom, against teens from other libraries in Iowa! There will be five rounds of questions on topics ranging from pop culture to more serious studies, crafted with teens in mind. Don’t hide that big brain! Your hobby, fandom, or celebrity crush might just give your team the edge.

(Age requirement: 12-18)

If possible, please plan to join the meeting 5 minutes early so that the battle may (promptly) begin. Questions? Email jstolz@urbandale.org. 

Register online or give us a call us at 515-278-3945.
