Introducing the Original Project 9-12/Tea Party of the Lehigh Valley PA

The Project 9-12/Tea Party of the Lehigh Valley came into existence in March of 2009. Since that time our numbers have grown to over one thousand strong with monthly meetings consistently being attended by over 200 members and guests. What are we all about? That is the purpose of this blog.
