FOREVER THE SICKEST KIDS HEADLINES PARTY IN PARK
Posted on August 17, 2011
California University of Pennsylvania will kick off the 2011
football season with its sixth annual Party in the Park and a performance by
the nationally known pop punk band Forever The Sickest Kids. The party gets started at 3:30 p.m. Sept. 1 at Roadman Park
on Cal U’s south campus. The public may attend. The fun begins with a performance by the band Beyond
Daylight and a Welcome Back Picnic hosted by University President Angelo
Armenti, Jr. The menu includes salads; grilled hamburgers, hotdogs and
chicken; corn on the cob from a local farm; desserts and beverages. Vegetarian
options are available. Picnic guests pay $6.75 for adults, $3.75 for children
age 7 and younger. Cal U students, faculty and staff may attend the picnic free
with a valid CalCard. An alumni tailgate party begins at 5 p.m. at the Roadman Park
pavilions. Forever
The Sickest Kids will perform from 5-6:30 p.m. The AllMusic website says the
band’s “songs are unapologetically catchy and simple, the ballads are
heart-on-the-sleeve emotional, and the sound (is) arena-ready.” The
party wraps up with a 7 p.m. football game at Adamson Stadium’s Hepner-Bailey
Field, where the nationally ranked Cal U Vulcans take on St. Cloud State
(Minn.). Game tickets are available at the gate. Cost is $8 for
general admission seating. Cal U students with valid CalCards may attend the
game at no charge; cost is $5 for students who do not attend Cal U.
