On this episode, Margaret McConnell is joined by Lehigh Valley IronPigs President and General Manager Kurt Landes to talk about the organization's celebrations around the country's 250th birthday and their grand event—something much more than just a big fireworks show—taking place at the ballpark on July 3rd.
Kurt explains why the IronPigs chose to play a significant role in local 250 celebrations and the process of taking ideas from inception to reality. He also talks about the community and economic impact the organization has had on the region since it was founded.
