POCONO TOWNSHIP, MONROE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — It's time to say goodbye to a sign of the times. A historical welcome sign in the Poconos is seeing its final days, something many in the area hate to see go.
The Pocono Township Welcome Sign has stood tall for more than 40 years, but after the weekend, the historical landmark will no longer exist.
The sign in Tannersville is hard to miss, but soon it will be very missed.
The cherished landmark located at Routes 715 and 611 will be permanently removed on Monday.
