6pm at Kitty Hawk Elementary School Gymnasium

Spelling for a purpose! Sponsored by Southern Shores Realty. Ensure to sign up beforehand.

As women educators sponsoring the 12th Annual Delta Zeta Community Spelling Bee, we invite you to participate in an evening of fun and fellowship in support of the Dare Education Foundation, the Delta Zeta grants-in-aid which provide financial assistance for Dare County students pursuing degrees in education, and the chapter scholarships which provides assistance to chapter members.

On Monday, March 16, 2020, teams sponsored by businesses, schools, civic groups, and individuals will gather at Kitty Hawk Elementary School gymnasium. The rules require that each teamwork as a unit to spell the called words; no individual is on the spot, or in the spotlight. A spirit of camaraderie in competition prevails as the team leader gives in writing the groups decision, one word at a time and one round after another until a winning team emerges. Teams are eliminated on the fourth miss. Each team will also have an opportunity for buy back chances after the fourth miss, allowing the team to continue competing. The winning team will have its team name engraved on a perpetual trophy that it can display until next year’s competition. If you are unable to field a team from your business or group, perhaps you would consider becoming an event sponsor by joining our BEEline to Excellence in Education.

Thank you for considering our proposal. We hope you will say yes to an enjoyable evening in support of education in Dare County!

6pm at First Flight High School - Kill Devil Hills, NC

A great excuse to have a mother-daughter date night!

"Come see what over 400,000 moms and daughters have experienced -- fun, connection, identity"
