Whitewash in White Lake

WHITE LAKE — The Town of Bethel Youth Center got a facelift this past summer, a fresh coat of exterior paint, thanks in part to the Sullivan County Probation Department and the Bethel Town Clerk.

Because of their efforts, the Bethel Pre-School will start the new school year with a fresh looking building.

The pre-school is open to children three to five years old, and the playgroup is open to children ages one and two. Several openings are still available, but preference is given to Bethel residents.

For more information call 583-5360.
