Join us starting at 5:30 on Tuesday, October 11 at Burlington Beer Company on Flynn Avenue for a fun spelling bee hosted by former UVM Basketball Coach Tom Brennan and National Spelling Bee Pronouncer Jacques Bailey. Teams of thee sponsored by local companies and organizations will compete as we raise funds to support local funding by Burlington Rotary clubs of Dolly Parton's Imagination Library project, which provides a book per month for every child enrolled, from birth until just before their 6 th birthday.

We have a few teams that need spellers to fill in, please email jesse.robbins.vt@gmail.com if you're interested in helping out as a speller and attending for free.

If you don't want to spell but want to watch, tickets ($30 for 1 or $50 for two) include heavy hors d'oeuvres and a beverage and are available at www.rotaryspellingbee.com; ($30 for 1 or $50 for two) when purchasing from our web site, it may be difficult to see the credit card payment option in some browsers (especially mobile); you do NOT need to use the bank account method.

We look forward to seeing you there!
