County Coordinators
The 2024 Greater Grand Rapids Spelling Bee covers five counties: Allegan, 巴里, uedbet官网, Newaygo, 和渥太华. Each County Coordinator supports its schools which are participating in the Greater Grand Rapids Spelling Bee, disseminates materials provided by uedbet官网ISD, and some also have long-standing county traditions. Each county has a Coordinator who arranges for the Qualifying Regional Bee(s) in that county. Counties with multiple Regional Bees will identify multiple schools to host regional Bees. Contact your County Coordinator with any questions.
The Greater Grand Rapids Spelling Bee is March 20 at 5:30 p.m. at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum.
