Team Jigsaw Puzzle Contest
Team up at Unmapped Brewing Co for a fast-paced jigsaw challenge presented with Sarah Does Puzzles LLC. Form a group of up to four and race to complete a 500 piece puzzle. Every team works on the same design, which stays hidden until a countdown begins. A competition judge monitors progress and records finish times. Top finishers receive prizes, there are also door giveaways, and every team keeps the puzzle used in the contest. After you finish, you may head out or stay to start another puzzle and enjoy a drink. An optional casual warm-up takes place before the main competition, with practice puzzles available and time to grab a beverage or snack. Competitors may eat and drink at the table, use box top holders and sorting trays, and bring extra lighting that is battery powered and does not affect other teams. Distracting or interfering with other groups is not allowed. Seating includes a mix of standard tables and high-tops, with both shared and single-team options. The entry fee is $40 per team. Refunds are not available, but pickup of the contest puzzle can be arranged if you cannot attend.

Attendees find a relaxed, family friendly setting with live music and concessions such as brat dinners, beer, wine, and other treats available for purchase. The concert draws a mix of locals, students, families, and other community members, blending fresh sounds with appearances by returning Wayzata favorites. Sponsorship opportunities are available, and net proceeds support the Wayzata Rotary Charitable Foundation, a 501c3 that directs funds back into the community through grants. Business & Estate Advisors is recognized as a Terrific 12 sponsor.
Wayzata Depot318 Open Mic
An open mic featuring a random drawing to determine performance order. The event has been full each night. Performers keep sets brief and play two songs per rotation, with a chance at a third selected at random if there is room. If capacity is reached and a slot is unavailable, a spot is guaranteed the following month. Participants are encouraged to rehearse and perform without a music stand. The atmosphere is supportive, and it is okay to make mistakes and learn to work through them.
