Memorial Day, besides being an important holiday when we pay our respects to the men and women who have served our country, is significant as a marker for the beginning of summer. As this holiday ushers in the warm weather, you know what that means: It’s time to go to the Poconos! Here the weather is just getting mild and the air is crisp and fresh. All the summer activities, events, and tours are open once again and nature beckons to you. Here is how to enjoy your Poconos Memorial Day getaway:
