What is the Grate Groan-Up Spelling Bee?
Bringing together friends, residents, volunteers, local businesses, politicians, non-profits, and some excellent spellers, the Annual Grate Groan-Up Spelling Bee aims to provide extra support to our library system.
With the generous donations and support of the Georgina Business community, we have been able to:
- increase the programs and services offered including the recent Planetarium visit
- Truth and Reconciliation events in partnership with the Chippewas of Georgina Island First Nation
- new additions to the Maker Space and much more.
Teams of three will compete for the coveted title and bragging rights of being the Best Spellers in Georgina.
With your support, we can unlock the new possibilities for our community.
