WARNING: BROWNCOAT ACTIVITY

Browncoat Ball 2024 Avatar Generator

Ni Howdy, Browncoats!

The PA Browncoats’ terrifying webmonkey got loose. They’ve strewn some parts across the engine room and the grav thrust had to be rewired, but the end result is a Browncoat Ball Avatar Generator!

So, if you’re going to the 2024 Browncoat Ball in Bethlehem this October, or if you’d just like to promote The Ball, feel free to create an avatar and use it on your social media accounts.*

*There’s still some wonkiness when trying to use it from within apps on mobile, so if you encounter any major troubles please reach out in the comments below.

Running of the Jaynes 2024 Recap

Posted on: September 8th, 2024

We’re 5×5! 2024 was the fifth year you guys made us proud! A big thank you to all of our amazing 2024 Running of the Jaynes Virtual 5k peeps. We had 37 supporters from 11 different states. Pennsylvania (of course) topped the list, but NY came in second. We had running, walking, shambling, paddling, and hiking. I tried to grab at least one picture from everyone who posted in our FB event page or sent me a photo. We had an fun meet up Labor Day weekend (pictures below) It took some effort but we got practically everyone’s swag to them. For CSTS 2024, our wonderful Delaware Valley folks not only participated in Running of the Jaynes, but also manned tables at local conventions with their Cosplay+Repair. We raised a total of $1,559.64 for Equality Now. Special thanks to our Running of the Jaynes committee for getting us across the finish line one more time! Hope to see you all again. Stay safe and stay shiny!

The Pennsylvania Browncoats are proud to announce the 2024 Browncoat Ball will be in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania this October 25-27, 2024. Visit the Browncoat Ball website to see the planned schedule of events and to register.

Browncoat Ball Bethlehem. Follow that Shiny Star!

I don’t suppose you’d find it up to the standards of your outings. More conversation and somewhat less petty theft and getting hit with pool cues.

We did it again! Thank you to all of our awesome 2023 Running of the Jaynes Virtual 5k peeps. We had 40 participants from 16 different states. Pennsylvania (of course) topped the list, but NY came in second. We had running, walking, shambling, paddling, and hiking. This year we had a Jayne Reaver, and a wizard (thanks, Leslie!) I tried to grab at least one picture from everyone who posted in our FB event page or sent me a photo. We had an fun meet up in August (pictures below) It took some effort but we got practically everyone’s swag (Hi Barbie!) to them. We raised $500 for Share Food Program (our new charity for 2023) and $500 for Equality Now (there will be additional funds for Equality Now through the wonderful PA Browncoats and their Cosplay+Repair efforts. Look for them at upcoming conventions!) Hope to see you all again. Stay safe and stay shiny!

Thanks to all who participated in the 2022 Running of the Jaynes Virtual 5k. We had 53 participants from 20 different states. Pennsylvania (of course) topped the list, but FL, VA, and AZ tied for second. 31.12 was the fastest posted time and 11 hours 45 minutes was the slowest. We had running, walking, shambling, paddling, biking, and hiking. There were four footed friends who joined in, and those who “carried” others across that goal. (we love all our participants). I tried to grab at least one picture from everyone who posted in our FB event page or sent me a photo. There was even a zoom meeting! Stay safe and stay shiny!

As of July 31, 2022, we raised $917.80 from Running of the Jaynes 2022!

Thanks to all the shiny folk who participated in the 2021 Running of the Jaynes Virtual 5k (Apologies for the delay in posting there were multiple Reaver attacks last year)

We had 50 participants (48 runners/walkers/bikers…you name it we’ll take it) from 18 different states. Top three states were PA, NM, and NJ. 28:34 was the fastest posted time (definitely blew away my time!). I tried to grab at least one picture from everyone who posted in our FB event page or emailed me (as FB was being its FB self). You all rocked!

Per our Cap’n Matt, we raised for $1200 for Equality Now in 2021.

xoxo

    The Running of the Jaynes is a “Virtual” Run/Walk 5k between July 11th and July 25, 2020. A CSTS affiliate charity event hosted by the Delaware Valley Brigade of the PA Browncoats.

    You can “Gotta go to the crappy town where I’m a hero” and get a keepsake dog tag and custom race bib image to download, or “When you can’t run…” you can just donate, and you can still get a custom race bib image.

Top three states were PA, NY, and NM. 28:14 was the fastest posted time (crazy!). I tried to grab at least one picture from everyone who posted in our FB event page. You all looked so shiny!

    As of August 7, CSTS Philadelphia has raised $1443.55.

    We still have tshirts for sale at the PA Browncoats store on teespring.com. Help us add to that total! (Final tally once tshirt campaign is completed)

    15th Annual CSTS Pittsburgh: “Serenity Under the Stars” September 5

    Posted on: August 13th, 2020
    by

    Howdy! I hope everyone is safe and healthy. I’m sending this wave to give you some exciting news.  Thanks to our friends and sponsors at Geek Frontiers and Jump Cut Theater, movie and raffle tickets for our 15th annual CSTS Pittsburgh screening of “Serenity Under the Stars” in Allegheny County’s South Park are now available in exchange for appropriate donations to Equality Now and the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank.


    To make your donations and secure your movie reservations and raffle entries, visit our event page at jumpcuttheater.org/calendar.
    A couple of quick notes about the movie and our raffles:

    • Your $15 donation reserves one spot for you at our screening.  It does not allow you to bring guests.  One $15 donation = one person watching the Big Damn Movie.  If others are coming with you, they have to make their own $15 donations.  Anyone who shows up at the screening without a prior reservation will be asked to leave… politely.
    • Only 50 attendees are permitted due to COVID-19 restrictions.  That includes me and my crew, so the actual number of available “tickets” is just over 40.  That means if you want to reserve a spot at the screening, faster would be better.
    • Your $15 donation gets you 5 entries in each regular raffle and 1 entry in the “door-prize” raffle.  If you’ve never seen the film before, you’ll also be entered in our “first-time viewers” raffle.
    • If you have a reservation for the screening, you’ll be notified approximately 24 hours in advance of the exact time and location of the event, either by email or text message or both.
    • If you come to the screening, you must wear a mask and observe social distancing.  No exceptions! 
    • If you select the “donation only” option, you’ll receive 2 entries in each of the regular raffles for every $5 you donate.  You cannot enter the “door-prize” or “first-time viewers” raffles by selecting this option, but you don’t have to be present to win one of the regular raffles if you select this option either.
    • Each of our regular raffle prize baskets will be unique, but they’ll be as similar as possible in value and shininess.  We know we’re asking you to purchase entries for our raffles sight-unseen this year, so you have our word as Browncoats that we’ll make ’em worth your while (and money).
    • All raffle winners will be chosen in advance using a random number generator and announced at the screening.
    • The deadline for getting your movie reservations and raffle entries is 6pm EDT on Friday, September 4.
    • More details are available at our website: cstspgh.webs.com, and at http://jumpcuttheater.org.

    That about covers it.  I hope to see you in South Park on Saturday, September 5 for “Serenity Under the Stars.” Stay safe and keep flyin’.
