June 7 Winners

1st place: Johann Chen
2nd place: Dominique Vance
3rd place: Nathanael Bonnell
All three winners qualify for the season finals. Our next bee is the Finals! Winners from the past six months will square off to be declared season champion! There will be a shiny trophy. Everyone is invited to watch.

Here is an incredibly low-quality photo. Founder bobbyblue was on vacation and magician Eric Walton subbed in. My iPhone couldn't really handle the dim lighting.


On a more positive note, the bee was featured on the BBC's website!
