The 6^th Annual Grate Groan-Up Spelling Bee

Simcoe ON, December 6, 2012 Calling all adult spellers for Early Bee registration. On Wednesday March 6, 2013, the buzz will all be about our local ‘Grate Groan-Up Spelling Bee’ Fun-Raiser! Sponsored by the Rotary Club of Norfolk Sunrise, this 6^th Annual event held at the Royal Canadian Legion in Simcoe begins at 6:00 pm, includes a fabulous catered dinner and of course a full-on Spelling Bee competition. Teams entering by January 15, 2013 will get a Free-Bee to use in the Spelling Bee. There will be prize recognition for all teams raising more than $600 in pledges, with special recognition prizes for teams raising more than $1000. Teams registering early have more time to raise pledges for these prizes.

The Spelling Bee is a major fundraiser for the Rotary Club of Norfolk Sunrise.
