Think you're fast at jigsaw puzzles? Why not come and test your puzzle prowess against other teams to win exciting prizes!

Join the competition to determine the fastest jigsaw puzzling team at Speed Puzzle-Palooza! Register below to compete to see which team of 2-4 people can complete an identical 1000-piece puzzle in under 3 hours. Prizes will be awarded to the 3 fastest teams, and every team will be able to keep their competition puzzle. (Solo competitors, make sure to sign up on the Solo Competition page.)

Doors will open at 9:30, and the clock will start at 10:00 a.m. All participants will have an assigned table. Be sure to arrive on time!


We will also have a puzzle swap meet outside the competition area. Bring used puzzles in good condition (no missing pieces, please) to exchange.

Ages 16 & up, unless you are accompanied by a parent or guardian competing on the same team. Only one person should register per team. Registration is required by August 10 so we know how many puzzles to order. Only 14 spots are available, so act fast! Click here to see a complete list of rules for the competition. Contact Megan Hines at megan.hines@lamanlibrary.org for more information.
