On Tuesday, May 21, 2019 Sinclair held a spelling bee at the Tartan Marketplace for employees and community members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The winning team came from the student affairs department, named Livin\u2019 Clean. The team is comprised of Larry Lindstrom, the Multifaith Campus Ministry Chaplain, Tristan Chaput, the Coordinator of Student and Community Engagement and Eugene Oswald, the superviser of the learning and tutoring center. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were three more teams that participated, including the advising team and the English team. Livin\u2019 Clean had cheerleaders on the sideline, holding signs to cheer them on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MC of the event was David Bodary, chair of the communication department. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u201cI got roped into this,\u201d said Bodary jokingly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They began with a practice round, and each team had only one minute to answer. The first word of the round was \u201cOdyssey.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, there was spelling bee themed food for people to snack on, including alphabet crackers, peanut butter bees and Honeycombs cereal.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The advising team\u2019s name was \u201cI don\u2019t know what I am doing here,\u201d and they lost the first round. The next word was, \u201cdaiquiri,\u201d which Livin\u2019 Clean got right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it came to the championship round, the cheerleaders were on the edge of their seats, hoping for Livin\u2019 Clean to win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last word was \u201czabaglione,\u201d an Italian dessert or a beverage. It was up to all three teams to get it right. Livin\u2019 Clean won the championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The members of Livin\u2019 Clean, as well as their cheerleaders, were ecstatic about the victory, and look forward to the next competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
