Alumni Night at the Blossom Music Center August 21 Otterbein and the Alumni Clubs of Greater Cleveland and Akron/Canton attended a concert at the Blossom Music Center on Saturday, August 21. A few alumni braved the heavy downpours to join us in the picnic shelter for appetizers and dessert. At 8:30 p.m., the rain cleared so alumni and friends were able to move to the concert area. Alumni heard the orchestra play music from Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, The Lion King, Mary Poppins and much more. Excerpts from these classic films were projected on giant screens for all to see. At the end of the night, a spectacular fireworks display was seen directly above the Blossom Music Center.
