The Literacy Council of Buncombe County will hold “Bee in Harmony,” a music-themed Spelling Bee, on April 24, 2014 at “On Broadway” in downtown Asheville. Beginning at 6 pm, fifteen teams of three adults each will compete in the most spirited and outrageous word challenge of their lives. This isn’t your average spelling bee. Teams must have both spelling and concentration skills in order to disregard the pandemonium caused by a costumed, cheering audience! Host David Ostergaard, formerly of Lazoom, keeps the audience laughing
Spelling
Bee teams are sponsored by local businesses, non-profits, community
associations, colleges, book clubs and friends. Participating teams this
year include Chestnut, The Laurel of Asheville, Blackbird, Wicked Weed, Chai
Pani, Kudzu Branding, WNC Woman, Malaprops, Pack Memorial Library, and many
others! Entertainment will be provided by local musicians, including a full
barbershop chorus.
The
community is invited to join the audience, prepared to cheer their favorite
team to victory with hats, horns, placards and cheering. Audience members are
asked to contribute $10.00 at the door. The entry fee includes a complimentary
dessert reception sponsored by Blackbird and Earth Fare. A cash bar will be
available, and prizes will be awarded to the audience members with the best
costumes!
