Over the past few months, the Pocono Mountains in Eastern Pennsylvania have had more than their fair share of national news headlines:

Terrorist training camp for the Fort Dix terrorists. Strippers on the golf course. Illegal immigrant raid on a local business.

However, the latest news story of the Poconos as hideout for the suspected NYPD cop killers has residents wondering if it’s time to change the local tourism slogan…

“Escape to the Poconos” probably doesn’t have the same touristy ring it used to after this week’s events.
“Yeah, we’re probably going to have to rethink that whole thing,” Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau Executive Director Bob Uguccioni joked. “That’s not the kind of escape we’re talking about.”
