A fundraiser benefiting the International Wolf Center.
It’s time for the International Wolf Center to Rally the Pack! We will celebrate 40 years of teaching the world about wolves!
The International Wolf Center is howling out to all wolf enthusiasts (members, nonmembers, your friends, and family) to “Rally” with us this May! We will have multiple food stations, a “dress like a wolf biologist” photo booth, live music, and a program featuring a live auction and guest speakers. If you arrive early enough, you can participate in a guided hike through the beautiful oak trees of Silverwood Park.
This is one of the largest fundraisers for the International Wolf Center. We are relying on all wolf enthusiasts to attend, support the mission by bidding on auction items, and have a howling good time.
What is a Forest Fête?
A Forest Fête is a celebration of food found amid the foliage of the forest. It is our theme for the 2025 Pack Rally and it should inspire how you dress for this event. Wear green if you want to blend in with the trees. Dress for a hike in the woods. Or wear something glittery in reflection of a starry moonlit night. Choose your fancy.
What’s for Dinner?
It’s not exactly dinner, but there’s no need to plan a hunt! There will be plenty of opportunities to graze on heavy appetizers and fill bellies at multiple food stations. Whether you are a carnivore or an herbivore, the available food will meet all dietary accommodations. A cash bar will feature a variety of beverages, including a signature wolf cocktail. Make it a mocktail if you’d like!
