Our yearly International Chess Tournament is back and better than ever! Organized over three days and with support from the local chess club, get ready to play both regular and blitz chess.

Have you been called a know-it-all? Love obscure facts? Read Wikipedia for fun? You've come to the right place: we're ready to reward you at our trivia evenings! Alone or in teams, you could win an all-expenses paid weekend trip to a beach resort!

For those with quick minds and quicker hands, we've got speed jigsaw, the popular event where you compete to see who can finish a 100-piece puzzle in the shorest time! And yes, you get to keep the puzzle if you finish!

A Summer Lake Fest classic, all about strength and endurance. Are you our next champion? If so, you could be the one to take home a gift card worth $100 to your choice of one of five sponsors!

The goal is to keep bouncing a ball as long as possible without using your hands and arms, or letting it touch the ground. Balancing is only allowed for a maximum of 3 seconds at a time - this is ball bouncing, not ball balancing, after all!

For those with perfect hand-eye coordination, we've got competitive darts! This event is 18+, and the first place prize is a custom car paintjob.

If you can juggle, sing, do backflips, perform magic, or any other exciting thing you've got up your sleeve, this is the event for you! There are several categories and many prizes for each.

Who doesn't love pie? You know what this is all about. It's also your chance to win some cool apparel and, if you get first place, a $50 gift card!

Got good rhythm and better flow? Love wordplay and thinking on your feet? We'll give you a topic and let you impress our panel of professional hip hop judges! Prizes include an exclusive shirt, a night out at an amazing local restaurant, and even a recording session at one of the judges' music studios!
