Lords of the Trident

Check out the new Lower Yahara River Trail with this free celebration organized by Dane County Parks. A slew of outdoor activities for all ages includes pontoon boat rides, disc golf, animal exhibits and, of course, nature walks. Each park hosts a music stage with performers ranging from Americana masters Evan Murdock & the Imperfect Strangers to metalheads Lords of the Trident (pictured ). This is Wisconsin, so of course there’s a biergarten (Lake Farm Park), a homebrew contest (McDaniel Park) and food carts at both parks.

press release: The funds raised will help build capacity of Dane County volunteers and the sixteen friends groups that support individual county parks. The work that these individuals do for the betterment of Dane County Parks and our communities is essential. Last year the parks had over 3,500 volunteers that put in an unbelievable 66,880 hours. That equates to well over a million dollars in labor.

 We hope you will join us at this festival to celebrate and support the parks and trails you love! Find out more about the event on the Dane County Parks website or on Facebook.
