Madison College was a site for Badger State Spelling Bee on Saturday, March 21. Spelling champs from schools across Wisconsin competed in the Mitby Theater for a chance to make it to nationals!

Special thanks to Wisconsin State Journal and Scott Milfred for inviting us to be a part of the annual tailgate party celebrating the spellers!

A few of our cast members were able to make time to serenade participants with songs from THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE!
