Fireside Friday — Campfire Jam Session

NOTE: Due to the heat, the JULY 28 Fireside Friday will be held in the Mansion Dining Room. S’mores will be cooked outside on the Library Terrace.

One of the best things about summer is doing things around the campfire! Come join us for Fireside Friday from 4 to 7 p.m. July 28  in The Meadow Picnic Area to jam with local string band Bob and Friends. Kind of like campfire karaoke, you can sing (or jam on your own instrument!) along with the band. Kids can make their own “percussion” instruments and learn a little about music and instrumentation too!

A cash bar will be open from 4 to 7 p.m. S’mores will be served. Please bring your own instruments and lawn chairs!

$5/person (ages 5 & under free). Register here. All sales are final.

Fireside Fridays are also scheduled for Aug. 18 (whittling), Sept. 15 (stargazing), Oct. 13 (spiders, bats and creepy crawlies) and Nov. 3 (subject TBD).
