Correctly answer the weekly questions to earn your spot in that week's drawing. Complete the bonus activity to earn an additional entry to the weekly drawing. Those who successfully make it through the entire month will be entered to win the grand prize, a Samsung 55" 4k Curved HD TV! Follow the rules and schedule below to play along.
