Save the date for the Wellesley Spelling Bee, Wednesday, November 14

September 17, 2018 by Deborah Brown

Wellesley Spelling BeeThe Wellesley Education Foundation‘s Spelling Bee is an old-school community spelling bee that brings the whole town together for an evening of fun and fundraising. Over 50 teams participate in the Bee representing local businesses, law firms, alumni groups, community organizations, and school PTOs, as well as student teams from Wellesley High School and Wellesley Middle School.

On Wednesday, November 14th, 7pm at the Sprague School Gym our community adult spelling contest and fundraising event is back for the 29th time! This high-spirited community event is right around the corner! How to catch the buzz:

Support the Bee — CLICK HERE to make a donation or sponsor a high school, middle school or community team. Many levels are available for sponsorship from $125 to $2500. The Bee is our biggest fundraiser of the year!  Any amount is appreciated.

Bee a Team — CLICK HERE to register a team of three spellers for $500. Who knows whom you may be spelling against that night? Last year 54 teams participated in the Bee! Deadline for registering a team is October 19.
