NFL Star Tim Tebow to Open a Camp for Children in the Poconos!
I know alot of people love Tim.
Here are the details from the Inquirer:
Tim Tebow purchased a 3,000 acre tract of land back in 2016 and will now use the land to be transformed into a Christian-oriented summer camp for children with disabilities in Bear Creek, Pa.
Rising Light Ridge, when completed, will cover just 110 acres of the property but most of the land will be open for hiking and horseback riding for campers.
“We’re disturbing as few trees as possible, so they can experience this,” Anderson said.
The Tim Tebow Foundation estimates that Rising Light Ridge will employ 50 to 60 people, full time, on a year-round basis. An additional 150 people could be employed there, seasonally.
“My heart, and the heart of my foundation, is to be able to bring faith, hope, and love to the world’s most vulnerable people,” Tebow said in a statement to the Inquirer “People who are in crisis, those who have been thrown away, those who need someone to fight for them. On this piece of land — a land that we truly feel has been set apart — we have a vision to do just that.”
Pennsylvania Has One of the Top 'Secret Places' in America to See Fall Foliage
Fall is upon us, and that means it’s time to start planning out your fall foliage travels. Here in Pennsylvania, we have plenty of incredible spots to take in the colorful fall leaves. We’re really lucky, in that sense, so have such a beautiful autumn landscape.
So, what if you want to visit an area of the state that’s isn’t an obvious one for fall colors? Maybe you would even call it a “secret” place. Well, the crew at BestLifeOnline.com has done the work for you and put together a list of the 10 best “secret places” in the U.S. to see fall foliage. “Summer’s end signals the last days of warm weather in most areas,” they state in the article. “But it also means the return of fall’s dazzling colors in full display as trees begin to turn for the season. You can plan entire trips around leaf peeping, whether it’s heading to a national park for unimpeded foliage or planning a drive to take in the dazzling orange, red, and yellow hues that dominate the landscape. And while the pastime is popular enough to drive crowds to well-known viewing destinations, there are still plenty of under-the-radar options for getting your fix.”
So, which Pennsylvania spot is considered one of the best “secret places” to take in autumn? There are plenty of options in our state, but read on for the full list of the 10 best cities in the U.S. to view fall foliage, according to BestLifeOnline.com. Find more information on all of the areas here. I will say that the No. 1 spot is not in our state- it’s in Julian, California. That town is about an hour east of San Diego and considered the best in America to not only see the fall colors but also participate in fall-themed activities.
