Special to The Press

Pennsylvania German Day was celebrated June 28 at the Schnecksville Fire Company.

Lehigh Valley residents whose heritage can be traced to the German settlers of the 18th century and later, brought Pennsylvania Dutch items for sale.

The event also provided an opportunity for those unfamiliar with the Pennsylvania German culture and dialect to learn about the culture and dialect.
