Bethel business expo December 4

BETHEL – There will be chances to win and visit with local businesses at the fourth annual Bethel Area Business & Home Expo. Come take a chance to win a custom snowboard autographed by Seth Wescott donated by Norway Savings Bank or a cord of wood donated by Cross Excavation. While you are there, visit with 35-plus local and western Maine businesses and get to know what they offer. This is all happening in the Telstar High School gymnasium from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Saturday, December 4.

Come for the food – the Taste of Bethel will offer delicious tastes from local restaurants from noon to 2 p.m. in the Telstar cafeteria. Come for the Theme Wreath Auction - more than two dozen businesses will decorate wreaths with specialty items and certificates. Bidding closes promptly at 2 p.m.

Nearly three dozen companies have already registered for the event but space is available for vendors at both events. Contact the chamber office at 824-2282 if you are interested in having your business participate; the event is expected to sell out.

All three events will collectively offer lots of great food, chances to learn about products and services available in the region, holiday shopping opportunities, and several chances to win some fantastic raffle items provided by sponsors and local businesses. Sponsors include Norway Savings Bank; Agren Appliance & Television, featuring GE and Simmons; United Insurance; Northeast Bank; Turner Publishing; W. J. Wheeler & Co. and Western Maine Supply. These sponsors all encourage your attendance at this wonderful, pre-holiday event.
