Summer Stage at Lapham Peak

When
Saturday, July 25, 2015
7:30 PM
Location
Kettle Moraine State Forest - Lapham Peak Unit W 329 N 846 Delafield, WI 53018

Have you been thinking about checking out summer activities at Lapham Peak now that the man-made snow is but a memory until next ski season? Consider joining other Nordics at the Summer Stage to see a performance of "Moon Over Buffalo" at 7:30 on July 25.

The play is a comedy about two fading stars of the 1950's in a theater in Buffalo, NY, who grasp at one last chance for stardom when Frank Capra comes to town to see their play. Of course, lots of things go wrong and hilarity ensues.

Tickets are $18 ($16 for seniors 60 & over) and can be purchased by phone (262-337-1560), in person at the box office in Delafield, on their website or the night of the performance.

You will need a state park sticker or pay just $5 that evening for the event to park at Evergreen shelter area. If you decide to come early to hike or bike then it's $7 for a day pass. You could even ride your bike out to the theater!

The picnic shelter behind the admission tent has been reserved for our group starting at 6:30 so plan to come early and bring your picnic supper and beverages. The theater is in a natural amphitheater area with lawn seating, so bring your lawn chairs (or rent them for $2) and stake out your place while we eat. Beer, wine, popcorn, and snacks are available for purchase and you can carry in whatever food and beverage you choose. No pets are allowed. The area is sprayed for mosquitoes but bug spray is a handy option as well as a light jacket for later. Most people walk from the parking area to the Summer Stage (so don't bring too much stuff), but a golf cart does offer shuttle service if needed.

The performances are held rain or shine but will be cancelled for electrical storms. If the weather is "iffy" that day you can call their number for an update; otherwise, "the show must go on."

Please call Joanne Ziarek @ 262-821-2064 by noon on Saturday, July 25, if you have questions and to let me know you are coming.
