This past weekend was the 15th Annual Pioneer Apple Festival at Ontelaunee Park in New Tripoli. Like the previous Apple Festivals, a number of New Tripoli Bank employees volunteered their time that day to hand out free ice cream to festival attendees. This is one of our favorite community events each year, due in no small part to being able to meet with our customers and the wider community outside of our branch offices. It also helps that we're spending the day handing out free ice cream which means plenty of smiles!
If you've never attended Pioneer Apple Festival, you're missing out! There's plenty of live music, a parade of tractors and plenty of food stands selling homemade specialties you won't find at your local restaurant. Hosted by the Lynn-Heidelberg Historical Society with the support of various organizations in the Lehigh Valley, this annual festival is a celebration of our community and shared heritage.
Big thanks to our volunteers this year: Gail Post, VP & Mortgage Loan Officer, Brenda Smoyer, New Tripoli Branch Manager, Laura Beltz, Accounting Rep., Betty Dean, Teller, Patricia Metzger, Universal Banker, Michelle Jones, Lead Accounting Specialist, Megan Belnoski, Data Ops. Rep., Sarah Martinez, Teller, and Sarah Gressley, Benefits & Payroll Manager.
