This year, take the time to read the story walk boards around the playground. Three Kutztown Middle School students; Giana Pizzelanti, Lucas Pizzelanti, and Rhea Ziegler, under the direction of History teacher John Knoll and with guidance from the Kutztown Area Historical Society created each board to share the history of the Easton Road  ( known today as Route 222)  and its significance to the American Revolution.
