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 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. Space is limited, and registration is required. For a complete list of rules and to register your team, go to the North Bend Public Library' website.
