Fundraiser focuses on spelling, trivia and fun

The Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap invites more businesses, organizations and individuals to participate in a fundraising event May 2.

So you think you can spell?

The Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society (LASS) is hosting the inaugural Team Spelling Bee Fundraiser taking place from 7:30 to 9 a.m. Friday, May 2 at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort.

“It is a team FUNdraiser and nobody spells alone,” says literacy outreach co-ordinator Jennifer Findlay.

“There will also be other fun activities and trivia throughout the morning so it is more about team-building, networking, and having fun than it is about spelling – although the winning team will definitely have bragging rights and a nice plaque to display at their place of business.”

Several businesses, organizations and individuals have signed on to participate, including the Salmon Arm Observer.

Interested parties may register as individuals or as teams.

Findlay will help individuals teams organize, so don’t hesitate to participate.

Call her at 250-833-2095 or visit www.shuswapliteracy.ca to register.

The registration deadline for the fundraiser is Tuesday, April 22.

 

LASS is a registered charity and charitable  tax receipts will be available for all donors.
