But first, today's weather:

Mostly sunny and pleasant. High: 86 Low: 75.

Here are the top 3 stories in Dunedin today:

1. The City of Dunedin now offers Scrapworks, a scrapbooking gathering held on Saturdays between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. at the Dunedin Community Center. Starting June 10, meet fellow scrapbooking enthusiasts for a relaxing day of cutting, gluing, stickering, stamping, and more. The fee is $7 per day and includes a sharable space and light refreshments. (City of Dunedin via Facebook)
2. Dunedin Parks and Rec will hold a Summer Camp at Night event for kids between seven and 12 years old on June 16 between 6:30 and 9:30 p.m. at the MLK Jr. Rec Center. Kids can enjoy an extended camp day while they enjoy their favorite games, snacks, activities, and a light dinner. Take advantage of their early bird deadline of $15 per child if you register them by June 14. Those interested can register online or in person at the rec center. (Dunedin Gov)
3. Check out the latest Dunedin Dad celebrated in the Patch for his ability to "create a happy and loving home environment for his kids." Dan was nominated by Ben, who shared that his Dad is "a loving, caring, and supportive father. He's always there to drop them off at school, pick them up, take them to after-school activities, coaching their baseball games, and being a master chef at home!"
