Greater Northern Lehigh Chamber Presents:
Heritage Day
July 3rd, 2021 | 10 AM | Veterans Memorial Park, Slatington 

The Greater Northern Lehigh Chamber, proud partner of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce presents Heritage Day!

The Greater Northern Lehigh Chamber of Commerce (GNLCC), proud partner of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber, is pleased to announce that Slatington’s Heritage Day will return in 2021 on Saturday, July 3rd, 2021 at Veterans Memorial Park.

“After being forced to cancel Heritage Day in 2020, we are happy to bring this long-held tradition back to Slatington,” said Kylie Adams, Assistant Vice President of Affiliated Chambers for the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce. “We will be hosting the event outdoors on the morning of July 3rd to ensure continuing our tradition will keep all in attendance are comfortable with such a gathering, and we are excited to resume the tradition once more!”

The event has been held in Slatington for several decades and is typically held in the Slatington Baptist Church, which will be available in case of inclement weather. Live music from the Heritage Day Band will be provided in the park, with an invocation from Reverend James LeVan of Slatington Baptist Church, followed by a program from presenter Kaz Kotlow, a local community leader and veteran.

“Kaz will be recognized at the event for his years of service to our country, as well as all of the brave men and women who have served from our community,” said Jessica O’Donnell, EVP of Affiliated Chambers for the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce. “While we typically enjoy holding the event at Slatington Baptist, it felt very appropriate to be hosting this event in front of Slatington’s Veterans Memorial with flags flying! We look forward to a day celebrating our patriotism and kicking off the 4th of July weekend!”

Those in attendance are encouraged to “BYOC” (bring-your-own-chair) or blanket to sit comfortably within Veterans Memorial Park; this event is free and opened to the public and open to people of all ages.
