Press Release Summary: Fernwood Hotel & Resort hosts its annual Scottish & Irish
Music Festival November 8 - 9.

Press Release Body: BUSHKILL, PA - The return of cold temperatures brings the sound
of bagpipes and Irish music to the hills of the Pocono Mountains where Fernwood
Hotel & Resort hosts its annual Scottish & Irish Music Festival November 8 - 9.

Gina Bertucci, spokesperson for Fernwood Hotel, said, "The Scottish & Irish weekend
has become a Pocono tradition with two exciting days of the sights, sounds and
spectacle of Scotland and Ireland - no passport required. The continuous musical
entertainment, with a strong list of performers attracts both a local and
destination audience."

The kickoff event for this Pocono Fall Festival is held Friday night beginning at
9:00 pm in Fernwood's Trolley Stop Pub with the Bogside Rogues, a veteran Irish rock
band. Weekend Pocono Fall Festival performers include: Na Bodach, The Malones, Neil
Emberg, Bogside Rogues, Emish, the Sean Fleming Band, Brother, Searson, and the
Pocono Highland Dancers.

In addition to the music, there are various Scottish and Irish vendors with jewelry,
crafts, specialty foods, and clothing, plus pipe band performances throughout the
weekend. Because it is all staged indoors at the Fernwood Hotel Event Center and
Astor Room, all activities are rain or shine and parking is free.

Fernwood Hotel and Resort is a year-round resort located minutes from the Delaware
Water Gap. Both villa and hotel accommodations are offered with four themed
restaurants, golf, indoor swimming pools, snowtubing and live entertainment every
weekend. For Scottish & Irish Festival package reservations and directions, or for
