The events in this edition have passed. See the latest area roundup for what is happening near 6210 Glen Court this week.
This is the Monday edition of the area roundup for buyers considering 6210 Glen Court in Heidelberg Township, published September 21, 2026. It covers a quiet start to the school week in Parkland, a notable South Whitehall planning meeting about a proposed data center, Friday football for both local districts, the start of fall festival season, and a preview of the biggest Heidelberg-area community event of early October. As always, schedules shift, so please confirm details directly with the venues and districts linked below before heading out.
Parkland: Schools Closed Monday, Trojans at Northampton Friday
The Parkland School District has no school for students today, Monday, September 21, a district-wide Professional Development Day when staff are in buildings for training and planning. It is a good day to know about for anyone pacing school-year routines around a move. Families observing the Jewish faith will also note that Yom Kippur ends at sundown this evening; it began at sundown on Sunday.
On Friday, September 25, Parkland Trojans varsity football plays at Northampton at 7:00 p.m., an Eastern Pennsylvania Conference road game. With Parkland's home schedule rotating through the fall, the district athletics page remains the best place to confirm game times, ticket details, and any changes before traveling.
South Whitehall: A Special Meeting on the Data Center Proposal
One of the more consequential local-government items this week is in neighboring South Whitehall Township. The Planning Commission holds a special meeting Wednesday, September 23, from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. at the Township Municipal Complex at 4444 Walbert Avenue to review Project Atlas, a proposed hyperscale data center the township says would sit near Parkland High School. Local reporting has covered rising resident interest in the proposal and calls for a public hearing, so it is likely to draw a crowd. The township's Zoning Hearing Board meeting scheduled for that evening has been cancelled. If data centers, land use, or South Whitehall growth matter to you, this is the meeting to watch; confirm the agenda on the township site before attending.
Friday Night Lights: Tigers at Home
For Northwestern Lehigh fans, the marquee game of the week stays on the calendar: the Tigers host Saucon Valley on Friday, September 25, at 7:00 p.m. at home in a Colonial League division matchup. It is the kind of home Friday-night game that defines small-town fall in the Lehigh Valley, and with the district's new stadium, it is an especially good night to catch school spirit. Check the Northwestern Lehigh athletics schedule before the game for ticket information and any last-minute changes.
Fall Festival Season Kicks Into Gear
The transition from summer to fall becomes official this week on the farm calendar. At Hausman's Fruit Farm in Coopersburg, the Fall Festival opens Thursday, September 24, and runs weekends through late October, with hayrides, corn and hay mazes, barrel trains, pedal tractors, pony rides, and pick-your-own apples on fall weekends.
Weekend hours are 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays and 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Sundays. Farther west, Pumpkin Valley Farm's Fall Festival opens this Saturday, September 26, and continues weekends through October 25, with a five-acre corn maze, farm play areas, and pick-your-own pumpkins from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For a lighter weekly rhythm, the Lehigh Valley farmers market circuit is in full swing: Coopersburg's market runs Sundays, 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.; Bethlehem's Thursday market runs 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.; and Easton's riverfront market, the oldest continuous open-air market in the country, is open Saturdays through the season.
Save the Date: Pioneer Apple Fest, October 3
If you want one event to plan around this fall, make it the Pioneer Apple Fest presented by the Lynn-Heidelberg Historical Society, Saturday, October 3, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., rain or shine, at Ontelaunee Park at 7344 Kings Highway in New Tripoli. It is the big community gathering for the Heidelberg area, with pioneer-style demonstrations in the society's historic buildings, an apple pie contest with cash prizes, kids' crafts, face painting, live farm animals, hayrides, Native American demonstrations, tractor and car displays, dog agility, and local makers and food vendors throughout the park. Admission has historically been free with a suggested donation of around $5 per car to support the historical society. Just over ten minutes from the townhome, it is the signature local event of the early fall.
