The Corporate Spelling Bee combines fun, food, laughter, and genius in a great community-wide event. As local businesses and organizations spell their way to success, they also help raise awareness of literacy efforts in the Tarrant County area.
Proceeds of the Bee support the mission of the Tarrant Literacy Coalition, which works to improve the quality and increase the quantity of adult literacy services for adults in and around Tarrant County.
Click to join in on the fun and ensure you are on the list to receive your Corporate Spelling Bee invitation.
Pick your starters. Each team is comprised of three (3) adult spellers chosen by the sponsoring business or organization. In addition, each team is encouraged to have an alternate speller in case someone cannot attend the day of the Bee.
Plan your strategy. Hold practice meetings and study "Spell-It" books provided by the Coalition. Teams designate a lead speller to speak for the team, and because the competition is fierce, make sure to practice your favorite spelling technique.
Recruit your cheering squad. Team spirit isn't just for the spellers. Encourage enthusiasm and team participation by holding a qualifying internal spelling bee, supporting the spellers with a cheering section, or by crafting a team name...and even costumes!
The competition starts out with a warm-up round of words related to the industry or field of expertise of the sponsoring organization. Don't forget the Wordmaster is willing to assist teams by using the word in a sentence. Trust us, ask for a sentence. Following rounds quickly increase in difficulty until the Champion is declared.
Sound rigorous? Arduous? Formidable? Daunting?
As a reward for bravery and savvy, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place teams receive gift bags full of certificates and prizes from great local restaurants, stores, and sporting venues who generously donate to make the prize packages worth thousands of dollars! The 1st place winner also is awarded the beautiful traveling Corporate Spelling Bee trophy, with the team name engraved on a plaque. With all this at stake, fame and fortune is sure to follow!
