Every year as part of the fundraising campaign for Relay for Life, Bethel Elementary sells glow in the dark novelty items to the students. This year as an extra bonus for the children, “Dining in the Dark” was introduced. The students were able to purchase the glow in the dark items and wear them in the cafeteria while eating lunch in the dark. Two big sellers were the glow in the dark flashing mohawk and flashing mouth piece. Another favorite was the spiky flashy ring. With great ideas like these, the kids at Bethel couldn’t help but be “Glowing” with hope.
