Join Us for an End-of-Summer  "Party on the Green"  Photo Fiesta at RCTV on August 21

Join us on August 21 for a "Party on the Green" (or maybe we should really say "Party on the Green Screen") Photo Fiesta. We'll bring out the lights, cameras and green screen, order some snacks and put on party music for an end-of-summer Photo Fiesta and get together at RCTV.

Feel free to bring props and costumes, or just come as you are with your party attitude for a casual and fun, end of summer gathering at which you can meet up with staff and fellow RCTV members and producers, grab a bite to eat and a beverage, have a photo taken and enjoy the end of summer.  

Place: RCTV
Date: Friday, August 21
Time: 3 - 6 PM
Please join us!
