As part of its 175th anniversary, Judson College will host a party at Perry Lakes Park on Oct. 17 from 3 p.m. to dusk.
The Ambassador Brass Quintet of the Alabama Symphony Orchestra (ASO) will welcome guests beginning at 4 p.m. with a celebratory fanfare by Paul Dukas from the top of the 100-foot birding tower. At 4:30 p.m., new interpretive kiosk panels featuring significant sites and wildlife species will be unveiled.
Afterward the ASO Quintet will play a mini-concert at the park pavilion.
Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets for the concert and picnic supper. Food may be brought in or purchased from a barbecue wagon that will be on-site.
Perry Lakes Park is a 600-acre hardwood forest of the Cahaba River. The structures, signage and trails are available as a result of more than 40 years of volunteer work by groups including the Judson College Earth Team.
