Hello YSDP players and family!
We plan to have our Spring Concert on Saturday, May 8th, at Cantigny Park.
Cantigny Park is located at 1S151 Winfield Road, Wheaton. Click 'Register' to RSVP!
Due to a cap on the number of people allowed in the performance area, at this time we are only able to allow one parent or guardian to attend the concert. In the event that we have extra space available, we will open up the event to more parents on a first-come, first-serve basis.
The orchestra will perform at the small "Bandshell" area, located immediately right side of the entrance gate.
Families will need to pay $5.00 parking fees per vehicle to enter the park. Parents, please bring a lawn chair.
If you need to leave the park and return for the performance, you can request a receipt from the gatekeeper to re-enter without paying the additional parking fees.
Weather permitting, the run-through starts at 12 noon and the concert starts at 3 p.m. In the event our spring concert is canceled due to inclement weather, the dress rehearsal from May 3rd video will be distributed to YSDP families as a substitute.
Cantigny is known for its exquisite gardens and the First Division Museum. Tickets for the museum or mansion must be reserved at least a day prior to your visit. Feel free to enjoy the park at Cantigny between the rehearsal and concert. There is no fee for the cancer performance.
