This is a ticketed event. All vehicles must have a ticket, which includes a pre-signed copy of The Deep End (Diary of a Wimpy Kid #15) and admission for one vehicle. Each vehicle will choose their arrival time slot. Do not arrive early, as vehicles will only be allowed in at their scheduled time.

IMPORTANT TICKET INFORMATION: In order to ensure the safety of our customers, staff, and visiting author, the ticket options are broken down into 30-minute time slots. You will be able to select a time slot on the Eventbrite ticket site. This allows us to control the number of cars we have at one time, and to ensure our ability to follow current state COVID-19 event guidelines. You must arrive during the time slot on your ticket. Cars will enter via the entrance at the stoplight into the Town Hall campus. Please do not come early, as we will not be able to accommodate early arrivals. If you show up after your ticket time, you may not be able to meet the author.

IMPORTANT EVENT INFORMATION: Health & Safety: Your health and safety is our priority, which is why we ask all event attendees to follow the COVID-19 guidelines, which include: •Wearing a mask. All attendees over 2 must wear a mask when their car windows are open, no exceptions. • Remaining in the car. All attendees must stay in their cars at all times during the event, no exceptions. • Staying home if you are sick. Have a fever, cough, or don’t feel well? Stay home! We can send a book to you.

We will have a limited number of *signed* copies of Jeff Kinney’s books from The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series and Awesome Friendly Kid series.
