It's that puzzling time of year! Sign up to be part of the third annual MNJPA Holiday Puzzle Gift Exchange! This works similarly to a Secret Santa but it's the best kind of gift exchange because puzzle presents are the best presents! You will be matched with another Minnesota resident and asked to send them a new, unopened jigsaw puzzle. In return, another member will be sending you a surprise puzzle gift in the mail! Thank you to MNJPA member Crystal Dismuke for being our puzzle Santa again this year!

A big thank you to Cobble Hill Puzzle Company and MasterPieces Puzzle Company for their sponsorship of the two person, sprints, and individual speed races at the Duluth Jigsaw Puzzle contest.
Cobble Hill Puzzle Company’s colorful “Four Seasons of Mid-Century Living” was a huge hit with participants. MasterPieces Puzzle Company’s Greetings from the Lake” was the perfect puzzle to start out our weekend of puzzling next to Lake Superior! Cobble Hill and MasterPieces are not only wonderful puzzle companies, they are fantastic supporters of puzzlers! Thank you!!
