Who
benefits from the Scrabble Bee?
Thanks to last year's event sponsors and
attendees, nearly $30,000 was raised.
Over 600 students in Green Bay are
currently receiving our literacy
services, giving them the opportunity to
function effectively as workers and
community members.
What happens at the Scrabble Bee?
We’ll begin the event with a dinner
served family style and then begin the
game of Scrabble, only with a twist.
That twist is a team “competition” for
groups of six to eight people working
with a Scrabble board and a bag of 100
tiles. There are two rounds of
Scrabble. In each round, teams take all
the tiles and create their board based
on a unique theme.This casual event also features a silent
auction, raffle, cash bar, and prizes.
