Windber Miners Day Festival

Windber Miners Day Festival

The Miners’ Memorial Weekend is an annual event to honor the coal miners who died in the mines. The event attracts many visitors from around Southwestern PA and beyond. Events include a parade, antique car show, motorcycle show, street dances each night featuring area bands, food and craft vendors, children’s activities area and petting zoo.I decided that this event would be a great way for me to sell the ALS t-shirts and raise money for ALS. I had my daughter call the committee that organizes the event and reserve a booth so we could sell the shirts. My whole family helped me prepare for the event. Sarah, my granddaughter made a sign; Sandro, my son-in-law got two tables from my sister Millie; my wife, Joyce organized the shirts; and I scheduled friends and family to work the booth with me.
