Fredenhagen Class Act II Concert Sept. 17

Ted Fredenhagen's 19-piece big band, Class Act II, will play at his namesake park on Naperville's Riverwalk Saturday, Sept. 17 from 4:30 to 6 p.m. in conjunction with the Riverwalk Art Fair.

Class Act II plays jazz standards, including tunes from Benny Goodman, Count Basie, Harry James and more. The outdoor concert in Fredenhagen Park is free to the public and produced by the Riverwalk Foundation. Limited seating for this free concert will be available, so patrons are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs.

In the event of inclement weather, the concert will be canceled. For questions about the concert, please contact Riverwalk Administrator Jan Erickson at (630) 305-5984.

The Prince Castle and Cock Robin restaurants were originally located at the current site of Fredenhagen Park and owned by Ted Fredenhagen's parents, Grace and Walter. After their passing, Fredenhagen and his sister, Rita Harvard, donated the land to the City of Naperville for use as a park on the east extension of the Riverwalk.
