"Aged to Perfection: Rock 'n' Remember"

Grab your blue suede shoes.

Joseph Hall, an award-winning Elvis tribute artist, will headline “Aged to Perfection: Rock ‘n’ Remember,” the Barrington Area Council on Aging’s 17th annual wine tasting.

Guests will be able to sample a wide selection of wines provided by Barrington’s Wine Discount Center, while enjoying a buffet supper and bidding on live and silent auction items. Guests will also have a chance to win the evening’s main raffle item: the Barrel of Fun, two cases of wine specially selected by Wine Discount Center. Favorite wine selections will be available for purchase, and BACOA will receive a percentage of the sales generated by wine purchases.

Hall, a 28-year-old Texas native, has been performing as an Elvis tribute artist since 2006, and finished in the top ten of “America’s Got Talent,” in 2008. He has won numerous awards for his performances and performs regularly in the New Americana Theater in Branson, Missouri.

This year’s event offers early-bird pricing; tickets are $95 per person before August 20; $105 after.

Proceeds from the winetasting benefit BACOA’s services and programs for seniors and caregivers. These include Meals with Wheels, information and resources on aging-related issues, social and recreational programs for seniors, supportive services for family caregivers, support and education groups.

The event will be sponsored by Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital; Alden Estates of Barrington; PricewaterhouseCoopers; and The Garlands of Barrington; BMO Harris Bank is the entertainment sponsor.
