Be A Part Of The Bee!

Vivify yourself with expeditiousness—the fourth annual Lakewood Public Library Spelling Bee is coming! All children in second through fourth grade are invited to experience the ardor and exhilaration, blunders and bloopers, triumphs and disappointments of a competitive spelling bee. 

Preliminary rounds begin on Thursday, October 4th in the Main Library Multipurpose Room. During the next two weeks, the tension will mount as the number of competitors dwindles. All spellers still standing on October 18th will be invited to a friendly meet and greet reception before facing off in the championship on Friday, November 2nd.

The championship round will be a Scripps Howard-style bee, held in the Main Library Auditorium where participants will compete on stage with a professional light and sound system. Don’t miss your chance to shine in what is sure to be one of the highlights of the year at Lakewood Public Library!

To register, stop in at the children and youth services desk, or call (216) 226-8275 ext. 140.
