Join us for a night in nature with free music and concession-style food! Our kitchen will serve dishes like woodfired pizzas, walking tacos, and root beer floats followed by a concert from Katie Dahl. Sit at one of our picnic tables or bring your own blanket or lawn chair, and enjoy live music surrounded by the beauty of the Conference & Retreat Center. Come early for a hike or stay late to stargaze. Concerts will take place near our Natural Playscape, perfect for families with children. All are welcome. Even though the concert is free, pre-registration is encouraged so that we can extend our highest level of hospitality.
Concessions 6-7:30pm
Concerts 7-8:30pm
Clear-eyed and tough-minded, songwriter/playwright Katie Dahl is known for her smart songs, wry wit, and wise spirit. A small-town celebrity on the Wisconsin peninsula where her family has lived for 175 years, Katie is also an internationally touring, radio-charting artist who “delivers razor-sharp lyrics with a hearty, soulful voice” (American Songwriter). In live shows that are both courageously honest and devilishly funny, Katie dives deep into questions of land and love, family and body image, grief and joy. “In unsettled times,” says Peter Mulvey, “Katie Dahl brings us a grounded spirit.”
