A delicious milk chocolate shortbread bear from Mrs. M’s Shortbears is being consumed as I write this story. It is from the Holiday Expo being held today, November 10 at the Bethel High School Gym. The Bethel Braves Youth Football Organization (BBYFO) is the organizer for the event. The event is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and entry is free.

You can stroll through the vendor booths listening to Lori Haun playing lovely Christmas tunes on her Mellophone with the scent of Kettle Korn wafting though the air. Vendors with sweaters, scarves, hats, necklaces and other trinkets for the holidays surround the gymnasium. This is the second annual event for the BBYFO.

Terry and Natalie Neigel helped organize the event, hope to see you there today! For more information contact Natalie at natalieneigel@gmail.com.
