Tunkhannock may not be a city with tons of things to do, but we are small town with more quiet things to enjoy.

My town has two great parks to go to get some exercise or just relax. These to parks are Riverside, which has a newly renovated gym and Lazy Brook, for more of the walking and relaxing type.

Let’s not forget to mention that Riverside is located along the Susquehanna River for people to enjoy their boats.

Wrap Up

Megan Yakoski

Tunkhannock may be a small town, but it has plenty of things to do. We have a great schools to attend with amazing teachers. If anyone is looking for a quiet place to live, Tunkhannock is it. I think that no matter what, this place will always have a small town atmosphere.
