SUMMARY:Chinook Days Puzzle Contest
DESCRIPTION:The Chinook Days Jigsaw Puzzle Contest returns to The Matthews on Sunday\, January 18\, 2026\, with strict teams of two\, side-by-side competition\, and prizes for the fastest finishers. Whether you’re tackling a 500-piece challenge in the adult division or a 200-piece race in the youth category\, you’ll be working against the clock and the competition. Last year drew 93 people and sold out fast. This year\, we’re capping teams at 30 total\, so speed matters off the table too. \nDoors open at 2 PM\, puzzles flip at 2:30\, and it’s game on until 5 PM. Grab snacks\, hit the cash bar\, and settle into your station in the theater or lobby. Teams of two only (adults 18+\, youth under 18). Everyone works the same puzzle in their division\, so it’s pure strategy\, speed\, and a little bit of luck. First\, second\, and third place teams take home prizes\, and door prizes keep the energy high all afternoon. \nThe Matthews has been Spearfish’s home for creativity and connection for 120 years\, and we’re proud to bring this kind of accessible\, competitive fun to the Black Hills. Part of the annual Chinook Days celebration\, this event is a chance to test your skills\, support local arts\, and maybe walk away with bragging rights. \nTickets are $35 per team and space is limited to 30 teams (20 adult and 10 youth). Grab your partner\, register early\, and get ready to race the clock. This one fills up fast. \n\nAdult Teams of Two – 500-piece puzzles\nYouth Teams of Two – 200-piece puzzles\n\nChinook Days is a community-wide winter festival celebrating the world record temperature change in Spearfish\, SD\, on January 22\, 1943\, when the temperature rose 49 degrees in 2 minutes.
