Puzzle Race

Adult Summer Reading

How fast can you figure out where to put the pieces? Register for our puzzle race! Sign up with people you know or come and make a team with other puzzlers.

How fast can you fit the pieces together to create a jigsaw masterpiece?  Sign up to play on a team.  Everyone must register.  The fastest team to assemble the puzzle will win a prize!

Rules of play:

• No more than 4 people on a team.
• No one touches the puzzle box until the timer is started.
• Puzzlers get 1.5 hours to complete the puzzle.  When the puzzle is complete, all members of the team must raise their hands and shout "Finished" or "Done." 
• The winning team members will receive a prize.
• All other puzzlers can keep puzzling through the 1.5 hours.
