    EVERSON — Several hundred people attended Immanuel Lutheran Church's Annual Strawberry & Spaghetti Social on Thursday night, June 18, raising money for organizations including the Foothills Food Bank, Women's Care Shelter, Whatcom Hospice and Lydia Place. The strawberry shortcake was made by local legend Carol Vanderyacht, of the former Carol's Coffee Cup restaurant. Her husband Bill and daughter Susie O'Connor were also part of the cooking crew. Long-time servers Muriel Monsen (left) and Dawn Durand (right) whipped up shortcake for a long line of guests. Clarice and Neil Solvik (not pictured) have helped organize the event for years. In addition, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans will donate 50 cents for each dollar raised. Photo by Brita Adkinson
