Event Details
This event has been canceled.
Whether you want to relive former glory or you’ve never gotten over a stinging loss, now’s your chance to go for it again! We’ll be changing the format of a traditional spelling bee, so you can sign up in teams of 2-5 people (all 18 and up). If you’d rather not participate in the spelling but want to cheer on the participants, just drop in; there's no need to sign up.
Register your team with the captain's name and contact info in the main field and the rest of the team members' names in Special Notes. Alternatively, you can use use the form attached to the right and drop it at the Information desk or email it to sbunte@frvpld.info
If you want to participate but don't have a team, write that in Special Notes and we will attempt to place you in a team looking for more members.
