Third place winner was Andrew Prusack. Andrew is an eighth grader and the son of David and Cheryl Prusack of Big Bend.

Fourth place winner was Amie Carilli. Amie is a fifth grader and the daughter of John Carilli and Susan Conrad of Orma.

Mr. Gordon Rogers, of WVRC Radio, volunteered his services again, as in past years, as announcer for the Bee. Mrs. Tammey Webb coordinated the Bee for Calhoun Middle School. Mrs. Linda Edwards served as judge for the event. Mrs. Sheri Graham is the Spelling Bee Coordinator for Calhoun County Schools.
