Scout Breakfast & Tree Sale
What better way
to warm up for Star of Wonder than by going to the Annual Boys Scout
Breakfast & Tree Sale, from 8-11 a.m.?! Swing by the Bryn Athyn
Society Building (600 Tomlinson, between Buck Road & Philmont Ave) for
hot-off-the-grill pancakes and fresh-from-the-grower Christmas trees &
poinsettas (you can order wreaths from individual scouts - sales help offset
his summer camp costs).
Star of Wonder
Many people -
in the church & out - kick off their Christmas holiday with Star of
Wonder, a delightful program at Bryn Athyn Cathedral featuring
crafts & community. Fun for all ages, families or old geezers like
me! Decorate cookies, make a star ornament, craft a holiday centerpiece.
Bask in the glow of good fellowship as you craft your way into Christmastime! 10:00 a.m. - noon; light refreshments; a $2 donation/person is appreciated, but not required.
Follow the Star
After
enjoying Star of Wonder, roll next door to Glencairn Museum
for a Christmas in the Castle guided tour (noon - 4:30 p.m.). Better yet,
make a return visit on Sunday, December 2 for Glad Tidings, Glencairn’s annual Christmas open house, part of Follow the Star - Nativity Festival 2012.
Follow the Star nativities show how Christians around the world have adapted the Nativity scene to represent
their own national, regional and local cultures.
Enjoy holiday refreshments at
the Castle Cafe, revel in live Christmas music, a special family activity, and
a Christmas Quest of Nativity art in Glencairn. Finish up your visit by getting some of your
holiday shopping done at our Ten Thousand Villages sale and Glencairn's gift
shop!
Christmas in the Castle: this
year, Glencairn debuts a special 45-minute holiday tour that combine Nativity Festival 2012 with stops in
the Great Hall, Upper Hall, Tower, Chapel & Medieval Treasury. Learn how Christmas
was celebrated (1937-1980) in Raymond & Mildred Pitcairn's warm, welcoming home.
Discover for yourself the answer
to the question, “How do you celebrate Christmas in a 20th-century castle?” The
whole family will enjoy this tour!
