Speed and precision take center stage at Puzzle Palooza!

Teams will face off simultaneously to see who can complete an identical 500-piece puzzle the fastest. While the race is on for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes, the event maintains a festive vibe with a dedicated sundae bar courtesy of Crystal Lake Baskin Robbins.

This event features two identical seatings, either 10AM to 12PM or 1:30PM to 3:30PM, offering an open-level playing field where beginners and seasoned pros compete side-by-side for the championship title.
