Toe-tappin music from a two-banjo, one-fiddle, one-bass band greeted some 200 guests in jeans, plaid shirts and cowboy boots at the Stroud Foundation’s fourth annual hoedown fundraiser Sept. 16 for dinner and dancing. Young couples and parents mingled with long time donors and family friendS and in the backyard of Brooke and Stephane Carnot’s home on R Street, as they decided which of the dozens of silent auction items, from vacation housing to athletic event box tickets, to bid on. The Stroud Foundation for Children with Learning Differences was established in 2008 to honor the memory of Dr. Frank Stroud.
