Event Details

This year's Spelling Bee has been cancelled. We apologize for the inconvenience and look forward to seeing you at future Coos Bay Public Library Foundation events!


Catch the spelling bee buzz at Black Market Gourmet, 495 Central Avenue, Coos Bay, on Saturday, May 4th starting at 7 p.m.  Teams of undaunted locals will test their spelling abilities at Coos Bay Public Library Foundation’s eleventh annual Adult Spelling Bee fundraiser.

Tickets are on sale now at the Coos Bay Public Library.  The $25 entry ticket includes a scrumptious dessert buffet, coffee, and no-host bar along with plenty of merriment and probably words you have never had to spell in your life.   

Friends, families, and lexophiles are encouraged to join the fun by cheering on their favorite team, joining the 50/50 raffle, or purchasing raffle tickets for various bee-themed gift baskets.  In between rounds, audience challenges for prizes and glory will add to the festivities.  For more information call 541-269-1101.
