We invite you to join us for The Second Annual Spelling Bee! The Education Foundation of the Kennebunks Spelling Bee is a community event that raises money to fund enrichment programs within the MSAD #71 public schools. The 2008 Bee will be held on Wednesday evening, February 13th, at 7:00 p.m. in the Sea Road School Gymnasium. The primary sponsor of the Bee this year is the Kennebunk Savings Bank! The Spelling Bee is organized into approximately 42 teams, each with three adult members. Six or seven teams compete in a round. The winners of each round gather for the Championship Round. At the end of the Bee, a trophy will be presented to the winning team.
Each school in the district has a teacher team. At Kennebunkport Consolidated School, the KLAUSTROFOBICKS, picking up on our mascot, made up of Mr. Saunders, Mrs. Naimey, and Mrs. Pennington will be put to the test! KCS will also have a PTA team, known as the BEE HIVES (those wigs!). Other teams include the Kennbunkport Recreation Committee, The Kennebunkport Police Dept., The Graves Library, The Clam Shack, Primecare, and many more. Please consider joining us! Admission is free, as is the popcorn!
