2016 St. Paul's Schoolhouse Open House
On August 6, 2016 we welcomed the public for tours of the schoolhouse and enjoyed the entertainment of Fritz and Belva Williams of Palmerton who played musical selections on various unusual and antique instruments such as an ocarina, recorder, autoharp and a folk harp. Refreshments including PA Dutch sugar cookies and Shoo-Fly Pie were served to celebrate our PA Dutch heritage. A good time was had by all.
