The Amador Community Foundation will be bringing an increasingly popular and educational outing to Amador County- the spelling bee. What is being described as a combination of “pronouns, pizza and pinot”, the first ever Amador County Spelling Bee is planned for Friday, October 3rd. Competing teams can represent or be sponsored by local businesses. “Spelling bees are being hosted as adult entertainment in restaurants, bars and for all types of charities throughout the county," said Shannon Lowery, foundation executive director. To ensure that the competition remains friendly, fun and family-oriented, lists of the words will be available ahead of time for contestants to study. The competition is limited to 16 team slots, many of which have already been reserved. For more information on sponsorship fees, team set-up and prizes, or to reserve a spot in the competition, contact the Amador Community foundation at 223-2148.
