Standing across from scenic Dimmick Park, a testament to Hellertown’s quaint personality, the Hellertown Post Office has served the local community for over 200 years. Whether processing a package, selling stamps or ensuring that the yearly flurry of letters to Santa Claus reaches the North Pole, the Post Office contributes greatly to the welfare of Saucon Valley residents.
Hellertown Postmaster Joe DiRusso sits at his desk with a pile of donated candy in front of him. For a number of years now, the post office has held a candy drive to benefit the annual Hellertown Halloween Parade, which passes by every October. Bagged candy donations can be dropped off whenever the post office is open. This year’s parade is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 20 at 2 p.m. (Credit: Helen Behe)…
