Bethlehem Mayor Bob Donchez and former SVP of the Bethlehem Chamber of Commerce Lynn Collins Cunningham join host Sally Handlon to discuss “Bethlehem, a 365 perspective”.
Although founded Christmas Eve 1741, Bethlehem has been promoted as the Christmas City since the mid-1930s. It is the top ranked U.S. Christmas City in a Google search and the “oldest” based on date initiated. And, Bethlehem has received many “best” recognitions for its holiday season. But the Christmas City is more than a 4th quarter holiday celebration. This name portrays a community with an authentic and unrivaled volunteer spirit throughout the year.
