This weekend in Owego, NY

A lively day of record breaking centered on jigsaw puzzles is set with three ambitious challenges. Participants will aim to create the largest human jigsaw puzzle piece, gather the most signatures on a puzzle, and set the mark for the most individual contributions to a jigsaw puzzle in eight hours. For the human puzzle piece, 3,000 people are needed to quickly form the shape and hold it for five minutes while aerial photography and judging take place. Instructions on how to line up are provided in registration materials. The formation takes place in the Collier Street Parking lot, followed by an orderly move for most participants to Visions Veterans Memorial Arena. All attendees must wear the purple event T-shirt and badge for admission. The signature attempt is simple. Add a name to the puzzle, with a goal of at least 1,000 signatures. A special guest may be present to announce when the milestone is reached. The contribution attempt features a 40,000-piece Ravensburger puzzle divided into 10 panels and 10 bags across 10 build stations. Each station includes sorting trays, a dedicated build area, and a Puzzle Champion to guide teamwork. To count toward the record, each person places a single piece immediately after the person ahead of them, creating a steady, continuous line of builders working together.

This beginner-friendly group run meets on Saturday mornings. The route covers about 5K, and runners of every pace are welcome.
