The Bee will be held Tuesday, April 7th at 6:00 PM, in YOUR local library.
Participating libraries are, Allen F. Pierce Library in Troy, the Bradford County Library in Burlington, the Green Free Library in Canton, the Mather Memorial Library in Ulster, the Monroeton Public Library, the Sayre Public Library, Spalding Memorial Library in Athens, the Towanda Public Library, and the Wyalusing Public Library.
Each library is holding their own preliminary spelling bee. There will be three age groups for competition. Child Spellers must be between the ages of 8-12, Young Adult Spellers are between ages 13-17, and Adult Spellers must be 18 and older!
The first place winners of each age group will then advance to the Spelling Bee Finals and compete for the grand prize. First place winners in the finals will be awarded honors and will receive a brand new Kindle Fire tablet!
There is no cost to enter the spelling bee, but you MUST register at the library at which you wish to compete. You will receive the word list for your age group and contest guidelines upon registration.
For further details, or if you have any questions, please feel free to call any of the libraries during operating hours.
