Hark, good citizens! Gather ’round and let it be known throughout the realm: the Youth Archive is opening a new chapter this September with a new membership program designed to help keep this unique community gathering place thriving.
Beginning September 1, Youth Archive memberships will be $15 per month for teens and $30 per month for families of 6. A $5 day pass will remain available for occasional visits.
And what doth a membership bring? Quite a bounty! Teen members who sign the conduct pledge and whose parents sign the liability waiver will receive entry during public hours, a free drink and snack, a VR/Xbox session and opportunities to participate in coin challenges, all included with membership.
Teen members who signed up under the previous free-membership policy will receive three free passes if they sign up for a new monthly membership.

The Youth Archive will also offer a $125-per-month Youth Organization Partnership for group homes and other youth-serving organizations with larger groups wishing to attend during public hours. Meanwhile, the HIVE continues to be a party rental amusement center for private groups of all ages and interests, and you don’t need to be a member to rent it.
The Youth Archive continues its quest to provide the community with a family-friendly place to learn, create, play and belong, filled with pool tables, games, crafts, music, karaoke, movies, VR, dancing, food and plenty of imaginative adventures under one roof.
So, sharpen thy sword, gather thy companions and come join the fellowship! The next chapter of the Youth Archive begins NOW.
