The group Indivisible is calling for a nationwide protest on Oct. 18. In Carbon County the last three protests have been held in Jim Thorpe, but Jim Thorpe is a tourist town, and all the leaf peepers show up in force–literally thousands.
As a result we are holding this demonstration in Lehighton along Stanley Hoffman boulevard, also known as Route 209. Tonight my friend Midge told the Lehighton Borough Council where and when we were planning to demonstrate. I went along for moral support. Or in my case, maybe just support.
I thought we might get some flack from the Council, but they thanked Midge for the heads up. That went well.
