Not Your Average Spelling Bee in support of the United Way on today

The Not Your Average Spelling Bee in support of the United Way is on today, from 11:30am to 1:15pm, at The Underground Restaurant. Come and support your team or just  watch and have fun.

This is the third consecutive year for the event, hosted by University Events & Community Relations (UECR). It is played in Jeopardy-style format, with four-person teams from across campus competing for the title of "Best Spellers". Past winners have included teams from the Centre for Human Rights and the Secretariat.

This year’s event will be moderated by Vice-President University Relations Jennifer Sloan. All members of the York community are invited to purchase tickets for lunch ($15 for staff and faculty, $12 for students) and cheer on their favourite team. Tickets can be purchased at the door. All proceeds go to the United Way.

For more information, contact Carolyn McDougall, manager of community relations in UECR, at cmcdoug@yorku.ca or Farayi Mundangepfupfu, visitor & community relations assistant in UECR, at farayi@yorku.ca.
