The Spelling Channel's first public spelling bee was held December 30, 2005, at the Rudyard Kipling in Louisville. The event was a lot of fun, as about 30 contestants squared off against Metroschifter bassist Patrick McClimans. The winner, Kathy Lewis, was awarded several Spelling Channel prizes, including a 568 Most Commonly Misspelled Words mouse pad and coffee cup, a free ride home courtesy of CityScoot designated driver service, and forty dollars in cash. What would you do with all that awesome stuff? Our next spelling bee will be announced soon. An open call will be held in advance for contestants. Participation is open to US citizens age 18 or older. A group of as many as 100 contestants may be selected. We hope to make the group of contestants as diverse as possible in age and demographics. This web site will contain date, time and other information as it becomes available. Eventually, we would like to produce a series of spelling bees and bee/tv-gameshow-style events. Recordings of these events would be cut into episodes and posted as on-demand media at this web site, in iPod and broadcast formats. We hope you will stay tuned, then join us when we are ready to s-p-e-l-l out the details! PAGE UPDATED JUNE 27 2007 |
