‘Legislation’ sends speller back to DC

Michelle Davies | The Journal Gazette

Kaelyn Bender, an eighth-grader at St. Mary of the Assumption School in Noble County, smiles as she correctly spells “legislation” Saturday to win the 59th Annual Journal Gazette Regional Spelling Bee, presented by Touchstone Energy Cooperatives and IPFW in partnership with Barrett & McNagny, at IPFW’s Rhinehart Music Center.
