I was born in Lehighton, PA.
-Birthplace of: Joe Semanoff - College football player (BYU Cougars). **I have no idea who this person is, never heard of him
-For many years the Lehigh Valley Railroad was the town's largest employer, with several thousand residents working in the railroad's repair facilities or operating the railroad
-The community was named for the Lehigh River
-This was the site of the first Gnadenhutten Massacre on 24 November 1755, during the French and Indian Wars when missionaries and native converts were slain by native allies of the French.
-One of the largest events every August in Lehighton is the "Bike Night" featuring 28,000 plus motorcycles.
Not exactly the cultural hub of the state, lol.![]()
