The winner of the 2012 Teen Video Challenge for the state of Washington has been announced!  Own the Night by Teeler brought home first place this year.  His video was created at the Story Lab at the Tacoma Public Library.  He will win $275 and his library will receive $150 from the Collaborative Summer Library Program(CSLP), the organization sponsoring the contest.

The video and accompanying song were created by Teeler.  The beat was provided by PeonBeats and remixed by Teeler.    Teeler would like to show his appreciation to students at the Seabury Middle School and the Tacoma Public Library StoryLab.
