Annual Spelling Bee is March 20

Submitted by the Rotary Club of the San Juan Islands

The Rotary Club of the San Juan Islands invites the community to attend its 18th Annual Spelling Bee at 3 p.m., March 20, at the Friday Harbor Presbyterian Church, 425 Spring Street. Watch the excitement as 4th-8th graders from both the Orcas Island and San Juan Island schools compete. Rotary will award trophies and cash prizes to winning students. In addition, the winning students’ classes and schools will receive cash prizes. It is a surprisingly fun event and it’s free. Donations are always gratefully accepted to support this and other local Rotary literacy projects for students. Thanks to the Friday Harbor Presbyterian Church for providing the inspiring venue.
