Snyder County, home of CCAP’s 2026 President, Joe Kantz, is located in Central Pennsylvania and hosts a rich history with some of the States most scenic landscapes.  

The county seat, Middleburg, was laid out in 1800 and incorporated in 1864. It was formed in 1855 from Union County; the county was named for former governor Simon Snyder.

According to the 2020 census, the population was 39,736, and the county is part of the Selinsgrove Micropolitan Statistical Area. Its terrain includes the Appalachian Mountains, with notable ridges such as Shade Mountain and Jacks Mountain. The local economy centers on manufacturing, agriculture, and a strong German-influenced craft tradition.
