fun night of free food, music, indoor games, hypnotist, thousands

of dollars in prizes, photo booth, air brush tattoos, hair styling,

massages, raffles, outdoor games, etc. The event wraps up about

3:30 Saturday morning. This is your chance for that one last cele-

bration with your Senior friends before everyone leaves RVHS.

If you haven’t already purchased your ticket, stop by the office

and drop off your $100 to Mrs. Aguilar. The price will be going

up soon, so don’t wait! Last year we had 180 Seniors in attend-

ance and everyone had a great time. Once you arrive at Grad

Night, everything is free. Don’t miss it! If you have questions, e-

mail Amy Montoya at amymontoya87@gmail.com.
