Members of a team from Kennebunk Savings Bank are eliminated from a spelling bee Thursday night for incorrectly spelling the word “liaison.” The spelling bee, held in the Sea Road School gymnasium in Kennebunk, is a fundraiser for the Education Foundation of the Kennebunks and Arundel, and featured teams from a variety of area businesses, as well as several Regional School Unit 21 schools. (The Journal Tribune was among the participants, losing our round on the word “vargueno.”) The team from Bergen and Parkinson, LLC took home this year’s trophy with their correct spelling of “somnolent.”

Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
You can read more here about our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is also found on our FAQs.
