You're invited: Mike Turpen bringing his energy to BOB in special event for scholarship fund June 2!

        

 Mike Turpen has lots of energy, especially in raising money for good causes.

     That's why Mike will be giving away signed copies of his OKLAHOMA BESTSELLER book

 "Turpen Time" during a special signing/event from 5:30 to 7 p.m. June 2 at Best of Books. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Donna Nigh Scholarship at the University of Central Oklahoma. The UCO Foundation is working with Best of Books and Mike on the event.

      Mike said he has raised more than $20,000 in sponsorships thus far for the event and scholarship fund. He's also found a book sponsor so those attending will be able to receive a free copy of his signed book; supplies will be limited, however.

      Scheduled speakers at the event will include Mike, former Governor George Nigh and Donna Nigh, and UCO President Don Betz.

      "Mike's work on raising money for this scholarship fund has been simply incredible," said Joe Hight, president of Best of Books. "He approached me with the concept, and I thought this would be a wonderful way to honor Mike's work with his book as well as the Nighs. I can't tell you how impressed I am with what Mike has accomplished!"

       The public is invited to attend the event. A more formal announcement has been posted on Best of Books' website by clicking here.
