The "Citz", as it's been called, is allegedly a private club that the fire company runs. As such,…read morethey can stay open and serve alcohol until 3am. I say it's "allegedly" a private club because their policies for ensuring that non-members stay out has grown increasingly lax over the last few years. When I first hit the Tamaqua drinking scene, you had to show up with a member and pay a few dollars for a membership card. Then, every time you came back, you showed them your ID and they pages through their records until they found your name and you were allowed to go in and drink. I went away to school and When I moved back, I went up the The Citz by myself and asked if I could get a membership. They asked me if I knew any members, and I couldn't think of any off the top of my head that I was 100% sure had the annual membership. The next question the doorman proceeded to ask was, "well, do you see anyone in there right now that you know?" I moved away and recently moved back to Tamaqua. Now, when I go to The Citz at 2am, there's a sign on the door that states "be prepared to show ID and Membership card at all times". I give The Citz one star because the drinks are cheap. This is never a place you want to find yourself in, though. Of the dozenish bars that close in Tamaqua, about 50 people will end up at The Citz on a given weekend. Half of them are firemen. The other half are more colorful characters. You really have to question your direction in life after you walk in there at 2am on a Saturday night. Note: This review refers to the social club, not the functions of the fire company as it relates to dousing burning buildings, saving kittens, or blasting water into a drainage ditch at the Tamaqua Elementary School

Idk what nate is talking about, but lets get your facts straight before you want to talk crap about…read morea fire company that tries to raise funds to keep equipment updated, because I'm sure someone of your nature who moved away to goto school and "better yourself" won't donate money that is very much needed to keep tamaqua safe!!! So u don't like the citz then don't go!!:but I bet when they show up to save your house, or at 2am when you smash your vehicle in 0degree weather you'll very much love those guys with their updated equipment! ! Think before u talk.... or didn't they teach you that at the school when you "moved away"....... 5 + stars evey time in my reviews! ! CITZ RULES! !!!!!

How about looking into " THE BUREAU FOR THE AGING "? The one woman who works for them told me that…read moreI should move to Jim Thorpe because it is not going to be good for me where I live, because her sonny boy, who works or manages a bar/ lounge in Albrightsville, said that I talked behind his back, which is a lie. So, when I needed the services of the agency, I was told I should move, A THREAT. I called and talked to a supervisor and told her about the comment from her employee and that I felt the statement was a threat. She said it was not. The woman who told me to move is being protected by an agency, and her supervisor. I HAVE AND AM GOING TO CALL THE STATE AGENCY AGAIN. THE GOOD OLD BOYS ARE ALIVE AND WELL AT THE AGENCY AND HERE.

Security checkpoints are usually intimidating places for the average traveler and I was amazed by the warm and cordial reception offered yesterday by the Lehigh Valley Airport agents. We were escorting some foreign friends to their plane and as their English was limited we were a little concerned. The TSA agents went above and beyond what was necessary to ensure a smooth transition. They were helpful, cheerful and sent our friends on their way with smiles. It was so refreshing to meet some people who understand that professionalism is not diminished by a pleasant manner. We will definitely be making Allentown our airport of choice in the future!

Blakeslee is a very welcoming town. A local even shared that their population has grown over the…read moreyears to a whopping, more than 73% since the early 1990s! Currently, Blakeslee's population is about 4,800. There is a mall plaza, including a huge grocery store called Ahart's Market. They sell most of the things you'd find in your local supermarket including organic fruits. There is Wawa (it's an upscale 7 Eleven) open 24 hours. There are also several good comfort food places to eat in Blakeslee. One that comes to mind that I ate at was "Chat-N-Chew." Our waiter "kinda" knew I was probably from California especially when I asked, "Could I have a side of fresh fruit instead of English muffin?" Hahahah... He responded and said, "There is no healthy eats here, just fats and gritz!" I just love him!! Here's the best part though.... Blakeslee is not far from Lake Harmony where you will enjoy cycling, hiking, fishing, nature, and indoor water slides to snow skiing. While UBER was scarce in the area, we did managed to meet "Jess," who drove us to the airport (about a half hour drive to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport). Jess was born and raised here in Blakeslee. She works part time for UBER when she is not helping launch technology startups. BTW, according to Jess, there are AirBNB here so do check them out on your vacation at Blakeslee. Oh in case you might be wondering, "So what brought you to Blakeslee?" Work actually, and I feel fortunate to have had this fantastic time during my short stay. Cheers! .
