Sacony Creek
Sacony Creek[1] (historically Saucony Creek) is a 17.4-mile-long (28.0 km)[2] tributary of Maiden Creek in Berks County, Pennsylvania in the United States. It flows through the borough of Kutztown, and is the main water source there.
Sacony is a name derived from a Native American language purported to mean "place of outlet".[3]
The Kutz Mill and Kutz's Mill Bridge are located on Sacony Creek in Greenwich Township.[4]
The shoe manufacturer Saucony is named after Sacony Creek, as the company was founded on the banks of the Sacony in 1898, in Kutztown.
