Adventure Pass Changes in 2025

Due to software issues affecting all libraries using the service, the Des Moines Public Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass program will no longer be available in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. We hope to reintroduce the service at a later time, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Event Details

Have you heard of the subscription box Hunt a Killer? Join Haley as she helps you through finding a killer with a box of evidence to sort through.

Here is the game description: When Katie Dunn, an employee at a seaside amusement park, turns up dead inside a popular ride, her boyfriend quickly becomes the prime suspect. Could someone else have had a score to settle with the victim, or is the boyfriend as guilty as he looks? Behind the boardwalk’s picturesque façade lies a criminal underworld where everyone’s got something to hide. 

  • Reconstruct Kate’s path along the boardwalk on the day she died, and work out what secret she discovered that ultimately led to her death.

  • Uncover the crimes perpetrated by the other boardwalk employees to identify Katie’s true killer.

  • Sort through notes, create timelines, pore over evidence, and confirm alibis to crack the case and catch the killer.
