Fall Foliage Weekends 2011           
Jim Thorpe, PA

October
1-2, 8-9, 15-16, 22-23

Non-Profits: We still have room for non-profit vendors in the downtown park the weekend of 10/22 and 10/23. This is the weekend where we celebrate the work of non-profits and local businesses in our communities. The cost of the weekend is only $40. If you are interested, please email us at jtfest@ptd.net or call 484-467-0882.

Visitors: Please park at the County Lot behind the train station, it's very hard to find parking in town. Also, try and arrive as early to Jim Thorpe as possible, otherwise, you might find yourself in a bit of a traffic jam! Our thanks to you for visiting Jim Thorpe!

- When to Get Here
   We recommend you arrive as early as possible in order to reduce traffic wait times getting into town.

- Where to Park

   Parking in town itself is very difficult on any weekend. The best thing is to simply avoid trying to park on Broadway. instead, use the Carbon County Municipal Lot behind the downtown train station.

If you are arriving in Jim Thorpe on 209S from Stroudsburg, bear right through the light and in approximately 50 yards on your right, you'll see the lot entrance. If you are coming from 903S, then cross the bridge and go left at the light. From Nesquehoning on 209N just proceed straight through the light. In about 150 yards you'll see the lot on your left.
