The Senior School Presents The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
May 27-29 at 7:00 p.m. | May 30 at 2:00 p.m.
Melodia Plaza
An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vies for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming "ding" of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Many spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box.
*A rain date has been scheduled for May 30 at 7:00 p.m.
