Governor Shapiro & Family Camp Out At Lyman Run State Park, Visit PA Grand Canyon in Potter/Tioga Journey
Governor Josh Shapiro visits the area to promote “The Great American Getaway.”
“We’ve got all the assets here, what we do need to do is invest more to promote them,” he said.
Shapiro launched the state’s tourism rebrand, Pennsylvania: The Great American Getaway, on Monday at PNC Field in Moosic. He returned to Northeastern PA on Saturday to spend time in the Poconos with his family.
Shapiro left the ballpark Monday in a Pennsylvania-branded RV to trek around the state. The Governor — at times joined by Lt. Gov. Austin Davis and at other times his wife and four children — stopped to celebrate Pittsburgh’s selection as the host of the 2026 NFL Draft; hike the Allegheny National Forest; and camp out at Lyman Run State Park in Potter County.
“I’m told I’m the first governor to ever camp out in a state park,” he said.
Shapiro and his family spent Saturday afternoon on a rented boat from Wallenpaupack Boat Tour and Boat Rentals.
