Septoberfest - September 13th in Leesburg
Chris and George (prominently pictured on the right) know that Oktoberfest runs from September 20th to October 4th this year, but since their party is one week earlier they insist on calling it "Septoberfest".
Over 20 Mensans and guests joined them in Leesburg for German food, Bavarian music and conversation with friends.
