Wolf Trap cancels fall season at The Barns

You won’t be able to see Rodney Crowell, Karla Bonoff or comedy skits from The Second City at The Barns at Wolf Trap this fall. All live performances have been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“Today we are announcing that we will not hold live performances this fall at The Barns at Wolf Trap, including Chamber Music at The Barns concerts, due to current circumstances stemming from the pandemic,” a message on Wolf Trap’s website said.

“The Foundation is enormously thankful for the continued generosity and support from our donors, patrons, and community as we navigate these challenging times together.”

Some of the concerts, including performances by John Waite and Jim Messina, have been rescheduled for next year.

Additionally, Wolf Trap said that ticket holders for events that were rescheduled for fall 2020 will be contacted directly by email.

Fairfax County firefighters come home after assisting Colombia earthquake victims

Ten Fairfax County firefighters who are part of Virginia Task Force 1 returned late Thursday from helping coordinate a rescue effort after the devastating earthquake in Colombia. Family members greeted the team as they arrived in Chantilly Thursday night. A young girl held a sign that read "Welcome Home Daddy." For Andy Kassavetis, this was his first mission with Task Force 1, and seeing the devastation in Colombia put some things into perspective for him. He said he saw firsthand "how impactful an event can be on a community. It makes you think about, you know, really when you come home sharing the love with the people around you and letting them know you’re there with them, because things can change really quickly.”
