Dine to Donate at Texas Roadhouse to Support Bethel Robotics Team Headed to VEX Worlds
Bethel Middle School's award-winning robotics team is heading to Dallas, Texas, this May to compete at the prestigious VEX Robotics World Championship—and the community has a tasty way to help get them there.
Join us for a Dine to Donate event at Texas Roadhouse on Monday, April 21, from 3 pm - close, where a portion of proceeds will support Bethel Robotics as they represent Arkansas on the world stage. Be sure to mention and show the flyer for the fundraiser when placing your order for dine-in or takeout.
Bethel Middle School is proud to be one of only five middle schools in Arkansas to earn an invitation to VEX Worlds, a global competition that brings together top robotics teams from around the world. The team’s innovative engineering, teamwork, and dedication earned them this incredible honor, and now they need the community’s help to fund travel and competition costs.
These students have put in countless hours designing, building, and coding their robot. They’ve shown incredible perseverance and collaboration.
Come hungry and support a great cause. Every bite brings Bethel Robotics one step closer to Dallas!

🎗️ Strikeout Cancer Game: A Night to Remember 🎗️
Bryant and Benton Softball teams took the field Thursday evening with a shared mission — to Strikeout Cancer. 💪🥎
All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, helping bring hope and joy to children facing critical illnesses.
Fans were invited to write the names of their loved ones touched by cancer on cards, creating a touching tribute displayed on the field. It was a heartwarming and memorable evening for both families and players alike. Special thanks to our sponsor, Everett Buick GMC. 💛🎗️ #StrikeoutCancer #BryantSoftball
