Come - Engage your Senses and let
your Imagination Run Wild at the
Fall Fundraising Gala, Pipers
in the Prairie & Festival Fire
at the Aldo Leopold Nature Center.
Join us for a unique and unforgettable
celebration of the season. This
event is a family-friendly outing
offering a blend of activities found
nowhere else in Madison, including
music, drama, culture, and unique
indoor and outdoor nature
activities.
The evening begins with hearty
hors d'oeuvres as Celtic music
enchants with its ethereal and
enchanting melodies.
As twilight descends, guests will
hear a faint beating of drums in the
distance. As they assemble outside
the beat grows louder and faster -
then suddenly stops - silence!
Anticipation rises as a lone piper
is heard in the meadow - other
bagpipers from the Madison Pipes and
Drums and Celtic Brigade
Pipe Band, in full regalia, join him
as they march up the trails to
serenade the guests and lead them to
the bonfire wood. Suddenly the
wood pile erupts into a magnificent
bonfire and lights up the night sky
with its brilliance, and the threat
of old man winter is driven off for
at least one more day.
