UPPER MACUNGIE TOWNSHIP, Pa. – From music to horse carriage rides, reindeer and food vendors.<\/p>\n
“We just love getting out in the community, seeing everybody,” said Kate Farrell with DonutNV Easton-Bethlehem.<\/p>\n
Winter Fest is underway at Grange Park in Upper Macungie Township.<\/p>\n
It is where Farrell is selling donuts of all kinds.<\/p>\n
“The favorites tend to be cinnamon roll which is going to be a cinnamon sugar with glaze. That’s my personal favorite,” said Farrell.<\/p>\n
People are making s’mores around the fire nearby while others get an up close visit with reindeer.<\/p>\n
“It’s an opportunity to come together as a community and enjoy our amenities and our parks that we have,” said Ryan Griffiths, Upper Macungie Township recreation manager.<\/p>\n
Griffiths said this is the township’s third winter fest.<\/p>\n
“It’s just a way to really take the feedback from our community, tell us what they want and make it an enjoyable place to be,” said Griffiths.<\/p>\n
Others are choosing to stay indoors at the winter wine festival at ArtsQuest in Bethlehem.<\/p>\n
“This is actually our third year coming, so it’s always great to come back,” said Chelsea Walter with Bishop Estate Vineyard and Winery. “For us, we bring a wide variety of sweet whites, sweet reds, some dry whites, some dry reds just to kind of give someone something to enjoy when they come,” said Walter.<\/p>\n
ArtsQuest programming coordinator Alexis Kuzek said this is the fourth winter wine festival.<\/p>\n
“It’s a lot of Pennsylvania wineries. A lot of great wineries here today and about eight retail vendors,” said Kuzek. “It’s a lot of fun. People come, they sample wine, they can buy bottles or glasses and then supplement all of that with a little retail therapy,” said Kuzek.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"UPPER MACUNGIE TOWNSHIP, Pa. – From music to horse carriage rides, reindeer and food vendors. “We just love…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":116507,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[214,119,121,120,433],"class_list":{"0":"post-116506","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-allentown","8":"tag-_homepage_top_stories","9":"tag-allentown","10":"tag-allentown-headlines","11":"tag-allentown-news","12":"tag-lehigh-county"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=116506"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116506\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/116507"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=116506"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=116506"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=116506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
