The Mount Penn Fire Company holds its fastnacht sale on the Saturday and Sunday before Fat Tuesday every year, selling the traditional Pennsylvania Dutch fried potato-dough pastries as a fundraiser. Sales run out of the fire station on Grant Street and from a stand at 23rd Street and Perkiomen Avenue. The sale has run for decades and is one of several fire-company fastnacht fundraisers held across Berks County each pre-Lenten season.
