Humans vs Zombies 8:00 pm, Monday, October 30 Humans vs. Zombies is a game of tag played at schools, camps, neighborhoods, libraries, and conventions around the world.  Human players must remain vigilant and defend themselves with socks and dart blasters to avoid being tagged by a growing zombie horde. We will meet in the lower level meeting rooms beginning at 7:30 pm to go over the rules and pick the Original Zombie.  The Library will be locked up at 8:00 pm, and the game will start shortly afterwards.   Bring a bandana and either a foam dart blaster or sock (the dart blaster must look like a toy-no realistic looking weapons will be allowed). The game will run about 90 minutes.  Participants must be at least 16 years old.  Attendance limited to the first 75 people.  Check our HVZ website http://hvzsource.com/hackleypl/ for more information and to pre-register (does not necessarily save a spot in the game.)
