The following is to give you an idea of what you can expect during the Browncoat Ball weekend. However, the times and details should not be taken as final.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Friday, October 4, 2013<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We will have the Registration Table set up in the lobby of the hotel at noon. Guests will get all of the information about the weekend and a schedule.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Browncoat<\/a><\/p>\n

The Hospitality room will be open beginning that afternoon and through much of the weekend. The room is a place where Browncoat Ball guests can relax, chat, and get snacks and soft drinks. It will be closed during the Ball on Saturday night.\u00a0There will now be gaming and video included inside the Hospitality Room, as our location has changed from an upstairs suite to the first floor Oasis Ballroom, conveniently located right next to our other Ball events!<\/span><\/p>\n

The re-enactment of the Unification War will take place out by the pool at\u00a03 PM.\u00a0 We will be supplying guns, foam squirters, and grenades.\u00a0 The average temperature for\u00a0October 4\u00a0is 93 degrees, but the projected temperature is 100 degrees right now.\u00a0 You will want to stay cool.\u00a0 Don\u2019t worry about getting your clothes wet.\u00a0 They will definitely be dry by\u00a0Sunday\u00a0afternoon.\u00a0 After the War, there will no doubt be some incidents that continue between the Browncoats and the Purple Bellies, and maybe even a few Reavers might appear.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Friday\u00a0Meet and Greet will be from 6 PM to midnight.\u00a0 It is a t-shirt night.\u00a0 Please wear your favorite Firefly\/Serenity t-shirt. \u00a0If you don\u2019t have one, we will have some for sale.\u00a0 We will be looking for the funniest and the most unique.\u00a0 We might even be looking for the shirt that is the most popular.\u00a0 We will have Mikey Mason performing at\u00a07 PM, and a group of belly dancers around\u00a08 PM.\u00a0 There will be a game to help people mingle especially for those that have come to the Ball alone.\u00a0 Plus the room will have fun games and activities.\u00a0 Then we have arranged to have people from Arizona State University come and set up telescopes up on the top floor of the hotel parking garage.\u00a0 We were planning on doing some stargazing.\u00a0 The weather is predicting clouds\u00a0on Friday, so our stargazing might become moon gazing.\u00a0 If you are a night owl, join us in the hospitality room when everything ends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
