Scripps National Spelling Bee's 26th regional contest is tonight

FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES

Sixty-three students will get on stage tonight to spell their way to a medal.

It's the 26th annual regional final of the Scripps National Spelling Bee, which is sponsored by The Express-Times and lehighvalleylive.com.

Spellers from Northampton, Lehigh, Warren and Hunterdon counties will compete starting 6:30 tonight at Northampton Community College's Lipkin Theatre in Bethlehem Township, Pa.

The Express-Times will have a reporter covering the bee, and there'll be a photographer capturing the students on stage as well as the crowd. Check back tonight for the coverage.
