I hope that you will join me and the other Host Committee members for Club 66′s 2nd Annual ROCKtoberFête fundraiser, strolling back in time to transform The Barns at Wolf Trap into the Wildest Party in the West. Club 66 members and guests will enjoy a private, theme party featuring an exclusive live performance by local modern rock band Honor by August, as well as a DJ, dancing, heavy hors d’oeuvres, an open bar and a silent auction benefiting Wolf Trap Foundation Education Programs.
