SUMMARY:40\,320-Piece Pokémon Puzzle Challenge
DESCRIPTION:The Oregon Jigsaw Puzzle Association (ORJPA) is excited to announce the 40\,320-Piece Pokémon Puzzle Challenge!   \nRegister here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/pokemon-puzzle-event \nJoin a welcoming community of puzzle enthusiasts and help tackle a jigsaw puzzle of epic proportions! ORJPA is gathering puzzlers of all ages and experience levels to attempt to assemble a 40\,320 piece Pokémon-themed puzzle\, one section at a time 🧩. \nThe 40k Ravensburger puzzle has 10 total interconnecting puzzle sections with approximately 4\,000 pieces each. When it’s all pieced together\, the puzzle turns out to be over 22 feet long & 6 feet tall! If we finish the puzzle by the end of the weekend — fabulous! And if not\, that’s cool too! This is a fun puzzling event that’s all about the puzzle connections and friends we make along the way. \nThis event supports ORJPA’s mission to build a statewide puzzle community and will double as an ORJPA fundraiser. Your registration will help the ORJPA build capacity to organize more puzzling activities like swaps\, clubs\, and contests all across Oregon. ORJPA will also be fundraising by selling snacks & drinks and offering super cool paid Pokémon giveaways (raffle tickets available for purchase at the door). \nOur Pokémon- and puzzle-obsessed friend Christie has graciously provided not only the 40k Pokémon Puzzle itself but also the Pokémon puzzles and swag for both the paid giveaways as well as the free door prizes that will be distributed throughout the event by random draw. \nWe hope you can puzzle with us at the Portland Bridge Club (Montgomery Park Building) on one or both of the following dates: \n1. Saturday November 7th\, 9:00 am – 9:00 pm \n2. Sunday November 8th\, 9:00 am – 7:00 pm \nPlease reach out to oregonjpa@gmail.com with any event or registration questions. Happy puzzling! \n  \n**Please note: This event is an independent community fundraiser organized by the Oregon Jigsaw Puzzle Association and is not authorized\, sponsored\, endorsed\, or affiliated with Nintendo\, Game Freak\, The Pokémon Company\, or Ravensburger.**
