Join the buzzzz for the IPEI's annual Adult Team Spelling Bee! Ithaca Public Education Initiative (IPEI) hosts the 27th annual Adult Team Spelling Bee at Liquid State Brewing Company on Saturday March 8th from 4pm to 6pm. This annual “fun”draiser event supports IPEI’s grants programs for local teachers and students.
Gather your “hive” of up to six people to participate in this friendly team competition for orthography lovers and autocorrect aficionados alike. Teams work together to accumulate points for every correctly spelled word over four rounds to vie for a queen bee trophy and pots of local honey. Last year’s winners, the South Hill Hive Mind, included individuals who had never met before the event.
Brandon Fortenberry (DiscIthaca) returns this year as the Bee MC and Zoë Van Nostrand (former IPEI Board Member) will serve again as the Bee Pronouncer. Guest “beekeepers” include Bob Proehl (Trivia Master and Local Author), alongside other Ithacans to be announced.
Register your business or community group below to secure one of the ten team spots!
Not able to make the event? Consider sponsoring a Spelling Bee Word for $100 to raise funds for grants to teachers and students while featuring your company or community group at the event.
Due to space constraints, IPEI’s Spelling Bee is a participant-only event. In the future, we hope to find a venue that can accommodate spectators. Thank you for your understanding.
