For decades, explorers have been searching the dangerous rainforests of Central America for the location of a legendary "lost city." In 2012, using advanced radar technology, a shocking discovery was made, and in 2015, a team of archaeologists and anthropologists entered the jungle to begin unraveling the mysteries of an ancient culture. Free refreshments will be served. Win a stuffed monkey! Brought to you by the Library, the Common Reader Committee, and the Student Life Committee.
