Crossword Contest

The timed contest begins at 11am sharp! Teams of two will race to complete all three puzzles.

Compete by yourself, bring a friend, or join up with a new teammate at the event. Conquer all three puzzles and earn some serious bragging rights!

All teams will receive an identical set of three crossword puzzles (one "easy" and two "medium" difficulty). Finishing first doesn't guarantee a win! Puzzles will be scored for accuracy and winners will be announced by the following Tuesday on the Library's Facebook page.  

If no team completes all three puzzles during the two-hour contest, the team with the most correct answers will be declared the winner. The scoring method is based on the official American Crossword Puzzle Tournament (ACPT) scoring rules, with points awarded for correct words, fully complete and correct puzzles, and bonus points based on solution time.
