Methodist Church to compete in this
year's spelling bee. |

Bonners Ferry Rotary was proud to sponsor the
2017 Annual District Spelling Bee for Boundary
County. Elementary school students in third,
fourth and fifth grades went to the Free
Methodist Church in Bonners Ferry for the oral
competition this morning.
In a collaborative effort, volunteers from the
Bonners Ferry Rotary, Naples Helping Hands, Free
Methodist Church and Boundary County School
District 101 helped students traverse their way
through the competition.
For each grade, students who took first place
won a $30 gift card to Bonners Books and second
place students won a $20 gift card to Bonners
Books.
Students in fourth and fifth grades who took
first will be invited to the Regional Spelling
Bee to be held March 18 at the North Idaho
College campus in Coeur d'Alene.
The students were well prepared for the
competition and worked really hard in each of
their divisions. Thanks to the parents who
worked so hard with their children!

Jacoby Wenzel, 2nd Place: Brodie Bustillios; 4th
Grade - 1st Place: Rylie Kimball, 2nd Place Myah
