Puzzle Notes
Dear Friends:
Brendan Emmett Quigley brings us a special midday bonus today, a Marching Bands puzzle rated 2/5 difficulty.
Attached is a printable PDF, as well as a .jpz file in case you want to solve digitally (note that Across Lite can't do Marching Bands, so there is no .puz file). This is our third-ever Marching Bands. And if you like this puzzle, Brendan makes more of them as part of a biweekly subscription, which you can get for $15/year right here.
Enjoy it! Meta from Francis coming next week, and a special fun puzzle to close out the year ...
Ben and the AVCX crew
