RFL Announcement: "Roma Pro Vita Presents ... Togas!"

 

Team ACTS and Roma Pro Vita invites you to go back in time to Imperial Rome, to celebrate the beginning of Spring!  Arrive at our glorious Circus Maximus and tempt Fate by participating in chariot races.  Will you crash?  Or will you cross the finish line to win glory and the admiration of the Empress herself?

After the racing, ascend the stairs behind the VIP seating to the Gardens of Macenas and the Imperial Palace, where we have a grand feast prepared for you.

Chariot Races in Roma

Last weekend during their Bacchanalia Festival, on March 29 the Roma community held some chariot racing. From Noon to 1PM SL time, there was the sound of hooves hitting the track and the cheers of the crowd as the horses made their way around the track.

In honour of Mars and Equirria, we are having chariot races in the Hippodrome! The races will be done as 3 five lap races - and anyone is welcome to enter the race and try for the prize! There will be cash prizes for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place winners!

Second Life Newser was unable to attend the event, but Melanippe of Themiscyra (melanippe.karas) sent over a couple pictures. Aqua Resident came in "Primus," Rachel Corleone was "Secundus," Atashi Toshihiko made "Tertius," and Alba Cabo finished at "Quartus."
