 Usually, it's the kids doing the spelling.

Tonight, adults get their turn!

The annual Fundspell gets underway tonight at the Abilene Public Library.

Adults compete in a spelling bee with donations going to the Taylor County Adult Literacy Council.

The group says it's seen a spike in requests for help as of late.
