The third “Pops In The Park” concert from Norwalk Symphony is scheduled for June 9 in Waveny. A local nonprofit organization with two successful concerts under its belt, Pops In The Park is led by Doug Kerridge. We put some questions to Kerridge about the organization and the upcoming concert. Here’s our exchange.
New Canaan High School junior Adelaide Tuff first visited Open Doors about two years ago.
Her family had already been involved in the Norwalk shelter and support services organization, making about 1,000 sandwiches during the pandemic. Her older brother, Oliver, founded Feeding 500, which sees dozens of NCHS and Darien students raise money for the Open Doors food program. “They didn’t really have many donors who were able to donate food during that time, just because of the overwhelming amount of need they had,” Adelaide Tuff recalled.
