Editing Freeland, Pennsylvania (section)

===Customs===
Since a large demographic of people in Freeland are of [[Irish people|Irish]] descent, every year, there is a [[St. Patrick's Day]] parade through downtown, which is followed by a dinner. There are also annual events for [[Memorial Day]] and [[Veterans Day]], due to the large number of retired and active duty soldiers living in the surrounding communities. As part of the Memorial Day celebration, an annual Pub Run takes place, in which participants run a course with [[pubs|bars]] along the way. Participants must stop and finish a drink at each bar before continuing the race. The race usually consists of nine bars throughout the borough, as well as some that do not technically fall within the municipal entity.
