Here comes Fastnacht Day! While we typically enjoy the yearly fastnachts from Good Will Fire Company No. 1 of Trexlertown, we'll have to look for an alternative way to satisfy our craving this year. Learn why.
Here are the five things you can't miss today:
1. Lehigh Valley residents have reignited their interest in the prospect of a Trader Joe's opening in the area. With frequent social media mentions, online discussions and public meeting comments, the topic has gained significant attention among locals.
2. Allegiant Air on Monday disclosed its plan to launch a direct flight between the Lehigh Valley and Denver, with services commencing in June. Digital Content Producer Stephanie Sigafoos has more on the decision.
3. Lehigh Valley Health Network on Monday fell victim to a cybersecurity breach orchestrated by the ransomware gang BlackCat, which has been linked to Russia. Thankfully, the attack did not disrupt operations.
4. Allentown is making changes to its sponsored concerts at West Park this summer, and some residents are upset about what they see as a change in tradition. Check out the full story here.
5. A St. Patrick's Day-themed cocktail trail will be held by the Downtown Bethlehem Association on Saturday, March 11. We'll have the story later today.
