Spelling Bees can be for adults, too! Join us for a fun (and a little competitive) lunchtime event in support of literacy!
On Thursday, June 11 — for the first time in-person since 2019 — the Spelling Bee Challenge returns for a lunchtime event at beautiful VanDusen Garden.
Featuring a catered lunch, silent auction, stories of impact, and a three-round, team-based spelling bee, this is the ideal event to celebrate employees, connect with clients, or both!
Register for the ONE TO ONE Spelling Bee Challenge and demonstrate your commitment to kids and literacy in your community through a lively afternoon of spelling shenanigans.
With your help, we can work to close the literacy gap in British Columbia.
This is one time that words truly do make a difference.
Take the opportunity to step away from your desk and help us close the literacy gap in British Columbia.
This is one time that words truly do make a difference.
Register a team of 8, or join us as an individual speller!
