Park Board approves March 27 'Pizza and Puzzles' adult event at Fieldhouse
Summary
The Park Board approved a 21-and-over 'Pizza and Puzzles' event for March 27 with $60 per team (six members max), doors at 6:30 p.m. and a 7 p.m. start; the event will provide pizza and water and allow attendees to bring their own alcoholic beverages.
The Park Board voted Feb. 24 to host a community "Pizza and Puzzles" night at the Fieldhouse on Friday, March 27, a fundraiser and engagement event aimed at adults.
Staff described the event as a 21-and-over puzzle competition requiring a minimum of 10 teams and a maximum of 20 teams, with up to six people per team and a $60 entry fee per team. "It's $60 per team, so $10 a person," one organizer said, and doors were planned to open at 6:30 p.m. with a 7 p.m. start. The event will give teams two hours to complete a 500-piece puzzle; organizers proposed prizes and said pizza, water and the option to bring personal beverages would be provided.
Board members discussed logistics and whether the event might become recurring if popular. The chair noted concerns about the field house calendar and possible conflicts. After discussion, a motion to approve the parks department hosting the pizza-and-puzzles event was moved, seconded and passed.
Organizers emphasized the event is not intended to generate profit but to build community engagement and gather feedback for future events. The transcript records approval by voice vote; specific roll-call tallies were not recorded.
