We at Marshall Public Library would like to thank our patrons for the great effort everyone put forth in the national Million Minute Family Challenge. In its 12th year, the Million Minute Family Challenge encouraged interaction and communication among family and friends by setting a national goal of playing games for a total of one million minutes from September 1 through Dececember 31.
As a group, our final tally was 113,488 minutes which ranked us in first place nationwide! Our library patrons should be proud of their accomplishment. The final tally nationwide was 1,060,940 minutes. Our in-house grand prize winner with a total of 11,260 minutes was Clockstoppers. They will receive a new board game to continue playing well into the new year. We also held the in-house raffle and the winners are: Team Three Star, Puzzlemania, The Boarding Party, and Suz10y Q10’S. Congratulations! Each winner needs to come in and pick up their new card game.
As a result of this competition, we have seen families join together laughing, having fun, and enjoying time with each other. Many people took this challenge to heart and played games together and communicated in positive ways throughout the community. We have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this challenge and look forward to participating again next year.
