The Circle Banner - Anyone can love the mountains, but it takes a soul to love the pairie

Puzzles and Pints a new adult friendly competition, social, fun time was well attended by 39 participants and 10 teams. Each team was given the same 500 piece puzzle and given 2 hours to complete. The fist place team, finished in 1.5 hours. The team consisted of Nathan Tuttle, Dillon Simons, and Jennifer Hogan. They counted pieces to determine 2nd and 3rd place. Second place team, Wanda Robinette, Stephanie Haynie, Emily Guldborg, and Theresa Haynie. Third place was Faye Speer, Nycole Barbula, Chauna Clarin, and Ruth Clarin.

In my inquiring about the event it sounds like it will definitely be a repeat puzzle match. When speaking with one of the organizers, Vickie Brown she sated that finding (10) 500-piece puzzles with same design is a bigger challenge. Thank yous go out to "Highly qualified" volunteers Scot Brown, Justina Tuttle, Nick and Carla Schriver. I know I am hoping to to attend the next Puzzle and Pint. A the time of writing this article I was informed the next Puzzle and Pints will be March 8th. VFW. See ya there.
