Love Tamaqua. Spent every 4th July weekend their as a child. Had lots of family living in Tamaqua.Still do. Shout Out to Zoba's, Whychuli's, Shimku's &,Koch's.
Still looks the same. My heart ach's with love & warmth for Tamaqua. Thanks for the memories .
I was expelled from Tamauqua high school in 88 or 89. Lived out in sticks 14.5 miles fom Tamauqua. Yall should have a weekly train to Harrisburgh or Philly or have a Amtrak stop. They are still surface mining coal and polluting Little Schuckill Creek. I was in Trenchcoat gang. Glad I moved to Pittsburgh. Deer hunting very popular in Schuckill County. Hare Krishnas not welcome here.
I am a true Tamaqua Blue Raider Class of 89. I live down south now but I will always remember the good ole days in "my small town". I will never forget "Tamaqua".
the guers tea made me crack up, I don't know why! People have really made Tamaqua look nice! I remember Hess when it was at the 5 points , and back in 1993 when everyone used to be able to hang out, and who can forget Rack n shack gameroom! LMAO!
i will aways stay in tamaqua i will never leave i love it i want to die there i want to be burried there i want everything there TAMAQUA ROX love that place
My Irish immigrant great-great grandparents married in St. Jerome's in 1860. Awesome town. So full of great architecture and interesting history. Thanks for this video. It makes this New Jerseyan want to go back!
Oh my god, wanna move back right now. Will never lose that cozy small town feeling, it'll always be there. Thanks for the video. Tamaqua is as much fun as you make it. Grad - 1986
Got you all beat as I am very old, but this video does the town justice.
I recently gave the bank clock to the historical society that my dad removed from the bank building on Broad Street in 1960; it was in his garage for 48 years; I also have a great photo of my uncle in front of the original Indian statue in front of the old Tamaqua High School (now the high-rise).
I live in Jim THorpe which is also a small town like Tamaqua. This video was good and made me think of the "small town" I live in with the culture,history and the community. I moved away to a city few years back but returned to my small town for that down home feel. Thanks for that feeling in this video because I am sure we all could use it whether it is where you came from or the video made you feel it.
Proud to be Tamaqua Class of '95, East End Boy from birth to age 25+ . Thank you for this...I'd have stayed if the job market and economy there was good. I'll visit from Lancaster County from time to time!
Thanks a million. Saw this years ago on your DVD via your Mom. She just told me you posted it here. The family and I Love it. Words can't express our appreciation. God Bless and Best Wishes Always.
Many Many Many thanks for this. Yes the great times. What a great place and yes It makes me homesick as well. Only those from the area can truely know how one feels while viewing this. THANK YOU and GOD BLESS TAMAQUA, PA. Proud to be from this small town. Grad. 1980 THS
Thank you to my sister for sending this utube on Tamaqua and yes I agree with gina I too will watch this whenever I'm homesick. It did bring tears as I remember the "ole days"
