Event Details

Puzzlers - register your team today for the opportunity to win a $50 gift card!

This 500-piece puzzle competition has a maximum of 6 teams.  A team consists of 3 - 4 members (adults, ages 14+)  Team check-in starts at 12:50; competition begins promptly at 1:00 and ends at 2:45 OR whenever the first team completes their puzzle.  

Contest Rules:

  • Each team receives the same puzzle
  • No one sees the puzzle before the timer begins (puzzles are face down on the table tops)
  • If there is no declared winner by 2:45, the winner will be determined by the remaining number of loose pieces.  Loose pieces are defined as anything not connected to the main puzzle.
  • No devices or outside assistance permitted
  • Individuals are not allowed to distract or approach team tables while the competition is in progress.  Violation of this rule will result in team disqualification. 
  • Due to space limitations, spectators are not allowed at this event

We have space available for six teams.  Only one team member needs to register, but all team members should be listed in the space provided.  If you have any questions, please reach out to the staff at the Germantown Hills branch!
