TONGUE TWISTER CONTEST AT LOGIC PUZZLE MUSEUM

The prizes for the adult division of past year's International Tongue Twister Contest included a "portion of a peck of pickled peppers." A most appropriate reward. A yellow yo-yo (say that fast 10 times!) went to a student, and another winner took home sea shells that she could sell. Audience applause topped all prize value and laughter filled the hall. Our next annual contest is Saturday, Nov. 8, 2008 at 6 pm. Come to participate or just watch, listen, laugh and enjoy it.

The Logic Puzzle Museum's Tongue Twister contest has several age divisions. Past prizes include such "tongue twister nouns" like a "yellow yo-yo, " "a toy boat", and fun things like a red spinning spiral top. Even prize sea shells that you can sell. The contest's tongue twisters are surprises for everyone, and only announced as the division begins. We don't want you to get laryngitis from practicing too much in advance. See You Saturday, Nov. 8, 2008 at 6 pm. Bring grandma and grandpa, too!
