Gettysburg/Boyd'sBears Tourism Package is Great on the Budget
Wednesday, July 30, 2003

 

Travelers to Pennsylvania will be glad to know about a special tourism package for three of the hottest attractions in the state.   The Hampton Inn Harrisburg-West now offers a one-of-a-kind, flexible tour package for visitors to the National Civil War Museum, Gettysburg Battlefield, and Boyd's Bear Country™ in Gettysburg, all located 30 minutes or less from the hotel.

A standard room rate of $114.00/night plus tax includes deluxe breakfast bar, 24-hr. refreshments, outdoor pool, fitness center with whirlpool, 2 adult tickets to the National Civil War Museum with free gift bag, a free Boyd's Bear from Boyd's Bear Country in Gettysburg, and a welcome kit with discount coupons for Harrisburg and Gettysburg attractions.   There is no additional room charge for one or two additional children.

The National Civil War Museum uniquely captures the American struggle with a timeline portrayal of the issues straining the nation during Lincoln's presidential years.  Nowhere can you find a better understanding of the Civil War and its many famous battles, including Bull Run, Shiloh, Vicksburg, Chancellorsville, Wilderness, Antietam and Gettysburg.  More than 24,000 artifacts, photographs and manuscripts are on display, both for public and scholarly interests.   

The Gettysburg Battlefield -- 20 miles from the hotel -- is the site of our nation's largest Civil War battle, which opened on July 1, 1863 and closed two days later with the climactic "Pickett's Charge." This pivotal event changed the course of the Civil War and, ultimately, of U.S. history. These battlefields and museum are truly a moving memorial to our nation's struggle that everyone should experience firsthand.

Your stay at the Hampton Inn Harrisburg-West rewards you with a free bear from Boyd's Bear Country, also located in Gettysburg. Boyd's Bear Country is known as the "World's Most Humongous Teddy Bear Store" with more than 70,000 Boyd's bears, hares, cats, dogs . . . and anything Boyd's in the big red barn.  Boyd's also offers a wide variety of antique reproductions and country home décor.
