I couldn’t think of a better venue to bring Richmonders together than a fun-filled night at The Diamond,” says Positive Vibe Board Member Dave Saunders, President of Madison+Main. “With an average home attendance of over 6,600 and lots of publicity, we’re going to pack the house, break a record and have a ton of fun. Sorry, Zappos. Your record is going down.” For more information and to get involved in Hi5RVA, visit Hi5RVA.com. Look for updates on Twitter, using the hashtag #Hi5RVA.
