JOIN THE BUZZ!

Ithaca Public Education Initiative (IPEI) hosts the 28th annual Adult Team Spelling Bee at Liquid State Brewing Company on Saturday March 14th from 4pm to 6:30pm. This annual “fun”draiser event supports IPEI’s grants programs for Ithaca City School District 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 the Queen Bee Trophy and pots of local honey.

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 (WSKG).
Each participant receives one free drink from Liquid State Brewing Company and one ticket to win door prizes from local organizations and businesses.

Come for the Bee, Stay for Karaokee! Brandon Fortenberry will host karaoke from 7-10pm following the Bee. All tips go to IPEI.
