Incorruptible
When
a Medieval monastery hits a financial crunch, the monks must call it
quits or do something drastic to attract new business. (What
possibly could have attracted BTE to this light comedy of the Dark
Ages?) In Michael Hollinger's zany comedy, everyone and everything
is fair play, but only Faith is Incorruptible.
BTE audiences adored
OPUS, RED HERRING, and AN EMPTY PLATE AT THE CAFÉ DU GRANDE BEOUF -
we're pleased to again share the stage with a favorite playwright.

Eastern Cougar: Led
by: Kerry Gyekis, Eastern Cougar Foundation. When Europeans arrived
in North America, the mountain lion was one of the most widely
distributed animals on the continent. By the late 1800s, trapping,
hunting, deforestation, and devastation of white-tailed deer
populations, mountain lions were wiped out of almost all of eastern
United States. Even so, every year in Pennsylvania there are
reported sightings of what people believe to be cougars. Biologists
doubt their presence in the state. Join us to learn more about these
elusive predators, their role in the environment, and the stories
behind some cougar sightings. PPL Montour Preserve -- 700 Preserve
