The Bethel Social Services Department is updating the needs for their annual Back to School Program.  Department members thanked residents who have donated school supplies, masks and hand sanitizer so far.  There are 122 children receiving backpacks and supplies this coming school year.  Some items still needed include sharpies, pens, pencil top erasers, glue, scissors and post-it notes. Donations are being accepted until September 1st. Financial donations may be made to The Community Council of Bethel.
