Enjoy a friendly puzzle swap in the Claim Jumper parking lot, using the side behind Vons. On arrival, check in to share your name, a brief description of what you are wearing, and where your vehicle is parked so participants can easily find one another, then pick up a name tag. Display your puzzles from your trunk, on a folding table, or on the ground, and take a stroll to see what others have brought. If you spot a puzzle you want, please find the owner to arrange a trade rather than taking a box. Some people may give puzzles away, but that should not be assumed. Any trade that both parties agree to is welcome, with a suggestion to exchange items of similar quality or value. Label each box with a post-it that includes your name and whether the puzzle is complete, missing pieces, or not yet verified because you have not finished it. Keep pieces secure by placing them in a bag or taping the box shut, and take puzzles apart before swapping. Please wait until the event begins to start trading. Arriving early is recommended because many swaps happen quickly, though there will still be plenty to choose from later and a free table as well. Extra post-its, pens, and name tags will be available, and bringing your own is helpful. Stop by the admin tables hosted by Alyssa or Niki for a name tag or questions. Courtesy and generosity are encouraged, and first-time swappers are invited to mention it so others can assist.
