Please spell "humiliation" for a good cause

Heard a pretty good idea on the radio today. Brookline public schools is doing a fund raiser this week during the kids spelling bee. The kids do their thing during school and then at 2pm there is the adult Bee in which teams of 3 compete for a few prizes. The cost is $300 per team and the ad said that local business people, politicians and parents would be participating.

Sounds like a good way to raise money for the schools...and show kids that you don't have to know how to spell to be successful (kidding).

If it wasn't for a pretty loaded town like Brookline, I'd think it was great. How'd they come up with the $$ to advertise on the radio in the firsty place ?

Takes money to make money...
