Want to win two tickets to this year's WWE SummerSlam event on August 23rd in L.A.? All you have to do is be one of the first 25 teens/tweens (ages 10-18) to check out two or more books at any of the Pasco County libraries between June 24th and July 16th and you could win. Posters featuring Rey Mysterio, Evan Bourne, Beth Phoenix, and Eve will be given out to everyone who checks out 2+ books until each library runs out. Only one poster per person, regardless of the number of times you check out books.
So, how does this poster help you win? Well, there is a number on the bottom right corner of every poster. On Friday, July 17, two poster numbers will be drawn determining the grand prize winners along with alternate poster numbers, all of which will be posted on WWEKids.com. The two grand prize winners will win airfare to Los Angeles for two, two nights’ hotel, two tickets and $200 spending money for WWE’s SummerSlam pay-per-view event on Sunday, August 23, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Ten first prize winners will win copies of the WWE Encyclopedia. See the official rules online (PDF) for complete info.
Seem easy enough? Just come in between June 24 and July 16 (or while supplies last) and check out 2 or more books to enter. You won't see much better odds of winning a prize like this.

You can paint and finish the box, and there will be trinkets and found art available so you can design multiple pages.

Where: Hugh Embry library
When: June 24th.

Want to add some fun and wackiness to your life? Look no further! New River Library will be hosting a Teen Improv Night Thursday, June 18th, at 6PM. What is improv? Improv is a form of acting where the actors create the scene themselves, rather than following a script. You can act in the scenes or you can be a member of the audience. Feel free to bring unusual objects for the actors to use as props. For example, you could bring wigs, hats, stuffed animals, masks, etc.
