the season at Pipers in the
Prairie, the Aldo Leopold Nature Center's
spectacular fall fundraising gala!
This
family friendly event offers a
unique and unforgettable seasonal
celebration unlike anything in
Madison! he eveningg commences with
harvesthors d'oeuvress, Irish dance
demonstrations, nature activities
for the kids, a silent auction and
scotch tasting, 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.
