Spelling Bee
DeBee Burdette presents the 2010 Spelling Bee trophy to Dr Jim Brennan, Dr. Tom Gore and Dr. Mardi Schaufler (l-r)
The Spelling Bee was the first fundraiser to raise funds and awareness for literacy. The first BEE was held in 1999 and celebrated the 10th anniversary with a “Spellabration” in 2008. The Spelling Bee continues to “bee” a fun way to raise funds and awareness for literacy. Businesses and Community agencies sponsor a three person team to compete for the title of Spelling Bee Champ.
