Season 5, Episode 16 - We are on the homestretch of our series Exploring State Parks in the Poconos. Recently, we explored Promised Land State Park which is in Pike County - not far from Interstate 84.
We learned some great insights from Park Manager Sara Jade Woodsmith about the park's beach, campgrounds, history and more. We also paddled for a bit around the lake with Kara Derry, who's helped lead the new group Friends of Promised Land. And we learned a lot about the history of the park, one of the oldest in the state and with ties to the New Deal programs.
The Poconos is a year-round destination for millions and with 24-hundred square miles of mountains, forests, lakes and rivers with historic downtowns and iconic family resorts, it's the perfect getaway for a weekend or an entire week.
