The Jigsaw Puzzle Competition is Saturday, January 23, 2016 to celebrate National Puzzle Day. The contest will run from 10 AM to 3 PM.
Our last Jigsaw Puzzle Competitions were huge successes so this time there is room for 20 competitive teams. The first 80 to register will be in the competition. We already have over 40 people signed up with some coming from Vermont.
The challenge is for teams of 4 people to build a 1,000 piece puzzle the fastest. The winning team earns a Grand Prize of $500, 2nd and 3rd place teams earn $100 in Gift Certificates. All winners will receive a certificate, also.
- Each team gets the same puzzle - No one will get to see the puzzle until the starting bell rings - No team substitutions after the starting bell rings - Every team will have the same size table - Each team may bring any props they wish to use during the competition - It's $20 per person to register and you must pre-register - No age limit for contestants
If you want to order risers for your table to raise the table to counter height of 38" (versus the standard 29" height), be sure to order them for just $20/team.
All other activities will be FREE! Other activities that day will include: - Cheering on the teams that are competing - Live demonstrations by wooden puzzle artisans - Try cutting a wooden puzzle yourself - Learn some tidbits about the history of jigsaw puzzles - Examine displays of very old to very new wooden jigsaw puzzles - Various puzzles to play with - Selection of jigsaw puzzles available for purchase with 10% of sales benefitting KAINOS Home and Training Center for adults with developmental disabilities
