Karen Kier shares her Pennsylvania Dutch heritage with Kiwanians
Karen Kier shared her Pennsylvania Dutch heritage with Ada Kiwanis members earlier this week.
She said the groups are made up of Amish, Mennonite-Lutheran, German Reformed, Moravian and other groups. These groups share some beliefs while differing in others.
She presented a short amusing video, which featured two individuals speaking in the true Pennsylvania Dutch dialect.
Kier concluded her remarks by serving members some authentic Pennsylvania Dutch food included shoo fly pie and two different flavors of bologna.
