CELEBRATING ARDEN HILLS—September 15th—3:00 p.m. to dusk
Save the date! September 15, 2012 is our "Celebrating Arden Hills" fall festival. Events
will be held at Tony Schmidt Regional Park (3500 Lake Johanna Boulevard) from 3:00
p.m. until dusk. The planning of the 2012 event is being done by Kim Tamble — resident,
Sara Grant — Recreation Programmer and myself. The tentative schedule of events is
included for review.
Kicking off this year's event at 3:00 p.m. on the main stage will be the Bethel University
Band! The Bethel Wind Symphony is made up of 70 wind and percussion players that
perform the standard concert band repertoire, from Sousa marches, to orchestral
transcriptions, to the great "Classic" band works, to the newest works being written today.
Returning will be favorites such as the rock climbing wall, bungee trampoline event, hay
rides, moonwalk, pontoon rides and community booths.
New activities include a petting zoo, strolling magician, photo booth, d.j./karaoke, TCAAP
tours, community booth demonstrations such as floral arrangement, use of rain barrels and
a "Hunger Games" themed hair show. The Shoreview Northern Lights Variety Band will
cap off the evening and lead up to the fireworks at dusk (approximately 8:00 p.m.)!
Concessions will be available throughout the entire event. Two food vendors will offer a
large variety of foods.
There will be limited parking at Tony Schmidt Regional Park. Perry Park (3700 New
Brighton Road) will have parking available and a shuttle will run to and from Tony
Schmidt Regional Park from 2:45 pm. until after the fireworks!
