Rapid Transit’s first feature length film, soon available on DVD, will be premiered at Asheville Pizza Company in Asheville, North Carolina at 9pm on Thursday, Oct 30th, 2008. The event is two nights before the Green Race and of course one night before Halloween, so the celebration is called GREEN-O-WEEN. Rapid Transit will be giving away a Riot Thunder to the winner of the costume contest that night. "Come dressed as your favorite rapid on the Green. Best costume wins the Riot Thunder." The names are perfect for costumes: Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, Gorilla, Sunshine, Scream Machine, Hammer Factor, Colonel Dicks, Toilet Bowl, Rapid Transit, Groove Tube, Nutcracker, Chief, and the list goes on and on. We will share the night with Penstock Productions and LVM who will be showing their latest film as well. Both films will be abridged versions, approximately 30 minutes. The full versions will be available for purchase on DVD.
The cover fee will be $8, of which a considerable portion will be donated to American Whitewater for their undying river stewardship efforts.
