Our Rocktoberfest Was A HUGE Success! We rocked out to the music of Helios Band while munching on Hank & Hazel’s brats with Pure Grain strudel and pretzels. We hoisted a beer to this fall tradition – all in good fun for a great cause raising much needed funds for our programs and services for women and girls. Thank you all for your support and participation!
