Highlights of the 12th annual Hellertown-Lower Saucon Community Day, which was held Saturday in Dimmick Park, included a car show, live music performed by The Deadliners, raffles, activities for kids, dance performances by students from En Avant School of Dance, dozens of vendor and nonprofit booths, a K-9 demonstration by the Lower Saucon Township Police Department, a bike/helmet/backpack raffle by the Hellertown Police Department, a martial arts demonstration, food, and the presentation of awards to Bob Hohman, owner of Se-Wy-Co Beverage in Lower Saucon Township, and Bob Matey, who founded what is today the Matey-Medei Agency in Hellertown.

The volunteers who helped resurrect Hellertown's Edward H. Ackerman American Legion Post 397 were also recognized for their hard work.

Longtime Community Day volunteer and Hellertown-Lower Saucon Chamber of Commerce board member Bud Prosser was also honored for his contributions to the success of the event.

The annual event is sponsored by the chamber.
