Join in the fun and ring in the new year on Saturday, Dec. 28 during the Rube Goldberg Family Day competition at the Putnam Museum.
The “Ring in the New Year” Challenge begins with check-in at 11:30 a.m. Entry fee per family (or eight person team) is $25. Competition starts at noon, when teams of up to eight people will have two hours to build their own functional Rube Goldberg machine, capable of successfully ringing a bell.
Judges will test the machines, a winner will be announced based on creativity, and the Putnam will award prizes.
Pre-registration is encouraged, and walk-ins are welcome on a first-come-first-served basis, as space is limited. Call 563-324-1933 to register or for more information.
