January First Friday

- Events & Programs
Friday, January 8th from 7pm - 10pm
Theme: Wassail Celebration
After months of Jingle Bells, enjoy the unique acoustic music of earlier days in America and Ireland, as well as original songs, as performed by Susquehanna Travellers. January is also when we (tongue in cheek) seek the blessing of a bountiful harvest of the fruit trees at the tavern by Wassailing in the moonlight. Come prepared by dressing warmly in brightly colored attire with hats adorned in a festive winter or orchard theme and bring noisemakers! At the end of the evening, we will make noise (including shooting a cannon) to scare away any evil spirits, and appeal to the good spirits by singing "Here We Come a Wassailing", at which time the Wassailing Queen will place toast in the trees.
Enjoy a Tasting Programwith Tavernkeeper Murray Small in the Eichelberger Distillery for an additional $10. Tickets can be purchased below to reserve your seat until 3pm on the 8th. After 3pm, any available tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis at the door.
