See what Patient First is doing in the community.
Mother Nature may not have been kind to the 2023 Celtic Classic event in Bethlehem, PA, but that surely didn't dampen our spirits, or the spirits of the world-class athletes who competed in the event, nor those of their families and friends, and attendees from all over the Lehigh Valley and beyond.
Much to our delight, after all of the competitions concluded, several of the athletes came out into the crowd for food and beverage, and even a visit to our Patient First tent. We enjoyed great conversations with them, and even provided free blood pressure checks to those who were interested. It was such fun to meet and chat with these athletes in person. They were such fun, and so conversational with us!
It was also great fun to see men, women and children of all ages in their kilts in keeping with the theme of the event and the Celtic cultural heritage. We enjoyed many compliments from people who had used the services of our Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton centers, as well as other centers as far away as New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia. That always makes us feel good.
This annual celebration is hosted by the Celtic Cultural Alliance. Those who came enjoyed five stages of live music and the annual U.S. Highland Games National Championship during this multi-day event. It has earned its place as one of the biggest events on the Lehigh Valley's fall calendar each year.
How many days until the 2024 event? We can hardly wait to return! The staff, organizers and volunteers from this organization make participating in an event of this size a real pleasure for us and we are thrilled to be included each year.
