One hundred and thirteen pounds of cookies were made by 26 Bethel bakers for the 20th annual Y/K Delta Lifesavers Christmas Cookie Extravaganza.
Within 15 minutes every single morsel was sold at the Cultural Center Sunday, December 15 2013. The annual event raised $1,137 dollars for the Lifesaver endowment fund housed under Bethel Community Services Foundation. Once the money is added in, the fund will have grown to more than $220,600. This will help fund beginning swim lessons when the Yukon-Kuskokwim Regional Aquatic Health & Safety Center is completed.
