1st Annual Bethel Gingerbread House Festival

Allison Hughes-Randall, Neighbor

Who doesn't love a pretty gingerbread
house during the holidays? The Bethel Gingerbread House Festival is a
fun, family, and community-driven event to raise money for The
American Cancer Society.


All proceeds benefit The American Cancer Society's Relay
For Life of Bethel



The Gingerbread House Festival will feature gingerbread houses
built and decorated by local businesses, social organizations, clubs,
individuals, etc. and then judged for various awards. After awards
are presented, houses will be auctioned off to the highest bidder.
