Big Damn Breakfast

In the morning, we can meet down in the lobby for the hot breakfast included in your room cost to plot and plan the day’s activities.

Breakfast About Town

There are also several breakfast options (for a fee) at the Promenade across the street.

Earth That Was

National Museum of Industrial History Tour Historic Bethlehem

We return to the Earth that was….for a guided tour of the National Museum of Industrial History (NMIH) at the Steel Stacks (Bethlehem Steel Campus) or a Historic Bethlehem walking tour. We will provide transportation from the hotel to the NMIHor downtown Historic Bethlehem. (included in the Saturday/Full Weekend). For those who want extra time to explore on their own, there is free parking for the NMIH, and Bethlehem has parking lots/metered street parking

Stitch n Bitch & Gaming

For those that want to stay close to our home base, the hospitality suite will be open for a Stich n Bitch with yarn, and needles provided. We can’t say you will be able to make a cunning hat, but you are welcome to try. Various Firefly themed games will be around.

Free Range Lunch

Although lunch is not included, our crew will do our best to encourage our attendees to form foraging parties because nothing is more fun that having a great meal with other Browncoats… we might even find someone to make some “wife” soup or homemade bao.

Exploring Bethlehem

The Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley (across from the Homewood Suites) has9 restaurants ranging from family to fine dining, and a batch creamery. Historic Bethlehem has a multitude of small shops, eateries, and a couple of distilleries.We definitely encourage exploring the Christmas City while in town.

Primping

For those who want to be prettier than Kaylee at the Shindig, there will be time to get their nails done or their hair put in the latest updo (we will send out a wave at least a week before the big day with all the links to options at the Promenade for attendees to make their own appointments.

Preening

The hospitality suite will be closed at 4:00pm to allow all our committee members to get ready, and make final preparations for the Ball.

Cocktails

Saturday night’s festivities begin with a cocktail hour (cash bar). We will hand out announcement cards for those who wished to be announced as they enter the Ball.

Photos

We plan on having a photographer to capture all those amazing Browncoat Ball memories that pop up on Facebook every year.

Banquet

We will have a buffet with gluten free and vegetarian options.

Ball

After dinner, we will have a dance caller to help us through the traditional English style dancing as well as a live band or DJ for our more modern dancing. There will be the traditional PA Browncoat Cigar herf outside for those that partake, a best hat contest, and an auction/raffle to get some shiny memorabilia.
