Potter Sshtuffs: Sweeptakes, Another Library Competition, Alnwich Philosophers Screening

Tomorrow, according to Snitchseeker, a new competition (sweepstakes) is beginning for Potter fans! Warner Bros, the production company behind the films, will host the first of many sweepstakes entitled the Proclamation Sweepstakes and is described as follows:
On June 17th, fans will be invited to create their own Wish List and fill it with their favorite Harry Potter products (wands, robes, collectibles, books, DVDs, and more). Four lucky Grand Prize winners will win up to $300 worth of items from their personal Wish List! Additionally, ten runners-up will receive a copy of the best-selling Harry Potter: Film Wizardry book.
Head over on Monday to get involved!

In other competitions, Scholastic have offered libraries in the US the chance to win "a huge Harry Potter prize package...100 copies of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone[Philosopher's Stone], a gift card, and much more."

Finally, if you live this side of the Atlantic and have transport (via your parent, significant other or you own Anglia) there is an interesting event happening in the grounds of the magnificent Alnwich Castle. The reason I suggest your own transport is that, in my experience, Alnwich (above) is hard to get to! The beautiful scenery (used in such scenes as Quidditch and Winter at Hogwarts) is to be the backdrop for a special presentation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone:
On July 13th, alnwickgarden.com and ramsideeventcatering.co.uk have combined forces to show the film on a 40 square meter screen in front of Alnwick Castle, one of the most historical locations where the filming actually took place.

This event will also include Fun Fair, Food Concessions, Fancy Dress Competition and so much more. To order your tickets, simply call 0191 4605367 today!

Prices:
Family of 4 - ONLY 30.00 GBP
Single Ticket - ONLY 10.00 GBP
