Jack London Call of the Wild event on Sept. 23

Benefit for Jack London State Historic Park|

Guests at Saturday night’s “Call of the Wild” benefit for Jack London State Park are invited to step back in time for a wild night as the winery ruins are transformed into the famous Heinold’s First and Last Chance Saloon to commemorate a much-storied part of Jack London’s life. The event promises to be more than a typical fundraiser celebration. Upon arrival, guest may encounter bawdy ladies of the evening, drunken sailors, pickpockets, card sharks and fortune tellers roaming the meadow. Even Jack London will appear accompanied by some of his famous characters including Wolf Larson (“Sea Wolf”) and John Thornton (“Call of the Wild”).

The night’s featured guests include Mike and Mary Benziger, Gerry and Bill Brinton, Deborah and John Emery, Cheri and Keith Hughes, Stephanie Pugash, Buffy Miller, Jamel and Tom Perkins, Deborah and Harvey Shein, Dave and Vicki Stollmeyer, Maurice Tegelaar and Matt Sevenau and others.

Guests will be served Sonoma artisanal whiskeys followed by a dinner prepared by Stellar Catering complete with wines provided by Kenwood Vineyards.

The event will take place at Beauty Ranch in Jack London State Historic Park, 2400 London Ranch Road, Glen Ellen. The night begins at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 23. For tickets, visit http://jacklondonpark.com/call-of-wild-gala.html
