Our upcoming June issue of RIO VISTA! will feature our Rio Vista neighborhood 'graduates' at all levels...elementary, junior high, high school, college and even graduate school!  We need YOUR help to put this together so please send us a brief profile (75 words or less and a 2" x 3" hi-res photo) of YOUR graduate highlighting his or her achievements and plans for the future...and tell your friends about it, too! 

Please email your grad's info to our RVCA Newsletter Committee Chairman, Judge Michael Orlando, at editor@riovistaonline.com.  Deadline is May 12 for all submissions! (really!!). We look forward to hearing from you!
