Picture West Chicago is an ametuer photo contest for patrons in the West Chicago Library District. Each quarter we will assign a subject or theme to photograph. Photos may be taken with a phone or camera but may not be edited or touched up (other than cropping). We will display one photo per person (anonymously) in the Adult Services Department at the library so patrons can vote for their favorite! Each quarter's winner will be announced on the library's social media and featured in the library for the remainder of the month.

Teams will race against each other to finish the same 500-piece puzzle. You may bring your own adult beverages and snacks. Teams may be made up of 2-4 people. Each member of the winning team will receive a prize pack including a $10 Warrenville Park District Gift Card. Teams will receive the same 500-piece custom puzzle and have up to 2 1/2 hours to complete it. Puzzles will be unwrapped at the same time to begin the competition. If no teams complete it before the time ends, the winner will be chosen by the fewest number of loose pieces left.
Race, compete, and swap puzzles at Puzzle Pursuit on September 18 at ARC Center. Teams of 2?4 can compete for prizes and take home a custom puzzle.
