Welcome to the Pocono Chamber of Commerce

“The Chamber has great people and amazing energy! I have made many connections and see my business growing because of it!”
“The Pocono Chamber has many great businesses and people in it. Every month there are many things going on like business card exchanges, women in business, young professionals, seminars, etc. If you want to network and grow your business you need to be part of the Pocono Chamber.”
Lisa Diemer, Main Street Makery
“The Pocono Chamber of Commerce has been a wonderful way to promote my business. I attend the Women In Business Luncheon regularly and have networked with business owners of all levels and gained many clients from these meetings due to word of mouth.”
Mark Hahn, TPS Asphalt Maintenance
“Partnering with the Chamber has been one of the best decisions that we’ve made at TPS Asphalt. We’ve utilized a number of the services that the Chamber offers, most recently the option to send out an email blast to all members. Not only were we able to get our name in front of hundreds of businesses that could use our services, but we actually booked a number of jobs from the blast. The return on investment has been greater than any other advertisement (Facebook, Paid Search, and Direct Mail) that we’ve run in years, combined! Thank you to Sierra and the entire team at the Chamber for helping us with the process from start to finish. Their help has been invaluable and it’s very evident that they all truly want to help all of us grow.”
The Monroe County Transportation Authority, aka Pocono Pony, puts the “Giddy Up and Go” into your daily routine, providing safe and reliable public transportation to area residents and visitors.
MCTA started with one bus and one route, which began on the corner of Bridge and Miller streets in Stroudsburg at 7 a.m. Oct. 15, 1979, and served East Stroudsburg and Stroudsburg.
Quite a bit has changed since that autumn day, and today, MCTA offers Fixed Route, Shared Ride, Flex, and PonyPlus microtransit services, providing rides to work, health care facilities, shopping centers, educational resources, recreation, public services, and more around the county.
Our buses are instantly recognizable, thanks to colorful graphics, and our drivers have all been vetted for the safety of our passengers. All vehicles are ADA accessible.
Fun facts:
All seniors 65 and up can ride the Fixed Route for free.
Half of our fixed route buses use environmentally friendly Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).
Shared Ride has five programs available.
PonyPlus runs in two geographical areas, providing short, quick trips for $2.
Never tried public transit? Give us a call, and we will match you with the best program for your situation.
Please call 570-839-6282 or visit gomcta.com. Download the mySTOP app for Fixed Route and/or the PonyPlus app for microtransit. Stay informed by following MCTA on Facebook and Instagram.
