The following students move on to the 2011 Oral Spelldown.
You belong to a select group. As a qualifier for the Feb. 5 Post/Standard/WCNY Oral Spelling Bee, you represent thousands of talented spellers and have shown unusual mastery in spelling -- a skill many adults can only envy.
We need a good picture of you. Please come to The Post-Standard building at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 1 to have your picture taken. It will only take a few minutes.
You may park in our main parking lot, which is right behind our building. The entrance to the lot is on Herald Place, and you should enter the newspaper building through the Clinton St. entrance. Just tell the guard that you are there to have your picture taken for the Spelling Bee.
If you can't come in on Feb. 1 and/or if you already have a very good digital image of yourself, like a school photo, please email it to email@example.com no later than Feb. 1.
Also, please open the attachment titled All_About_Me.pdf and download it to your desk top. It is an interactive PDF, so you can complete the form and send it back (click on the link in the lower left hand corner of the form) no later than Feb. 1. Or, if you prefer, you may print the form, fill it out and mail it to:
Attn: Kathleen Poliquin
P.O. Box 4915
Syracuse, NY 13221-4915
Just make sure we get it by the Feb. 1 deadline
If you have questions, please call 470-6009.
If you are one of the top 37, please open and print
