NBPL release - The North Bend Public Library is excited to announce its first-ever Battle of the Jigsaw Puzzlers on Saturday, November 22, from 1:00–5:00 PM.  Competitors will form teams of up to four players (or compete solo if they dare) and race to complete a 500-piece jigsaw puzzle in under an hour. The event will feature three competition sessions starting at 1:10 PM, 2:30 PM, and 3:50 PM.  At each session, the first team to finish—or the team judged closest to completion—will be crowned the winner and awarded a prize. The team with the fastest overall time across all three rounds will earn the grand prize: a custom t-shirt featuring the 2025 Summer Reading theme and a set of all three competition puzzles.  Rules at a glance:  Teams may include up to 4 members; smaller teams and solo competitors are welcome but will not be given more time; This program is intended for ages 12 and up, but children under 12 can still participate. Teams will not be disqualified based on the age of their competitors.  Each team may register for only one session, and no person can compete on more than one team.  Teams will be notified of their start time after registration.  A complete list of rules will be based on the USJPA tournament rules and will be posted on the library website.  Space is limited, and registration is required.
