Every year PHMC has each site pick a Volunteer of the year and/ or an Outstanding Service Award for 2025. This year we were honored to have Brian Beamesderfer receive the Outstanding Service Award for the Friends of the Conrad Weiser Homestead for 2025. Below is his write up. Congratulations, Brian, and well deserved.

Brian Beamesderfer has been selected for the Friends of Conrad Weiser Homestead 2025 Outstanding Service Award. Brian is from Myerstown, Pa., where he resides with his wife Annette and son Aaron. Brian has been employed in the Hardware industry for many years in Myerstown and Annville, Pa.
Brian’s story about getting involved with the Conrad Weiser Homestead starts in a unique way. His oldest son Tim was a member of the Weiser Battalion, a recreated French and Indian war unit, once commanded by Conrad Weiser. Already a history lover, it did not take Brian long to join the unit and become immersed in all things Conrad Weiser! Brian started attending the Homestead’s living history programs and, a bit later, started portraying a tavern keeper in the annual Candlelight tours. Not stopping there, Brian took lessons and became adept at 18th century leather sewing. One of his leather hunting bags was a raffle item at the site.
Not stopping there, Brian became a valued board member in 2009 and now serves as Vice President. He also took the reins and plans the annual Patriotic concert onsite as well as the Annual Friend’s banquet. Brian also coordinates with our Groundskeeper in scheduling cleanup days for the park.
Brian, being a proud Pennsylvania Dutchman, realizes the importance that Conrad Weiser brought to Pennsylvania in helping with the founding of Berks County, the town of Reading, and many more accomplishments.
Brian stated that Conrad Weiser was “A remarkable man.” Absolutely true. However, you will find if you meet Brian, he too is a remarkable man! We are happy he belongs to our group and site!

We are open this Sunday from noon to 4 pm, with guided tours available. Hope to see you then.
