Delivery and curbside pick-up have allowed some restaurants to keep their doors open, but not at full payroll. Most have been forced to lay off workers, or worse, close completely. Stargazer will donate the proceeds equally among three local restaurants to help support their employees: Bolete (Bethlehem; also operates Mister Lee’s and Silvershell Counter + Kitchen, Easton), The Bayou (Bethlehem and Easton; Queen City BBQ in Allentown; Wiz Kids, Bethlehem) and Union and Finch (Allentown). Each restaurant will also be giving away one Stargazer Cast Iron skillet per week—perhaps to a lucky random curbside customer—as a thank you to their customers for the continued support. stargazercastiron.com

We thank the colleges and scholarship grantors for their dedication to the students. We encourage students to go to our FREDDY website for application information. CLICK HERE FOR SCHOLARSHIP WEBSITE! The FREDDY program is a celebration of all of the participating high schools , and we know how disappointed the musical-theatre community is.
