And the winning word....


Last evening was the 5th Annual Community Spelling Bee to benefit CREW. 

The trophy comes back to ZBPL.
There were 18 three-person teams to start.  At the end it was ZBPL and Zion Park District.  In the 10th round we got "malapropos." They got "energumenen."  No one had heard of that one!   (It means "possessed by a demon.") 

And ZBPL won the prize for the best cheering squad! 
The fans were the planners' idea


Nervous?  Not us!

    Congrats!

    I participated in the Scrabble (tm) tournament in Eau Claire which benefited Literacy Volunteers (great pairing). The library always did well.
