SAG-AFTRA Holiday Mixer 2012 Thank You

On Tuesday, Dec. 11, 2012, if you weren’t at Tommy Rocker’s for the WILDLY successful SAG-AFTRA Holiday Mixer 2012, you missed one heck of a party! In attendance were 400-plus casting directors, producers, directors, makeup artist, prop masters and SAG-AFTRA members from across the city’s wide talent pool. Tommy Rocker’s gave us happy hour food and drink prices for the whole night.

Thank you to all the volunteers who helped make the event run so smoothly: Adero Tuere, Alain Hodge, Ally Holmes, Audrei-Kairen Kotaska, Barbara Grant, Brian Grant, Conchita Congo, Dominique Kang, Dona Wood, Heart Shapré, J.R. Thompson, Joelle Jenson-Righetti, John Burnside, Kim Renee, Larry Asher, Mary Jo Scott, Michelle Fawn, Miller Daurey, Robert Kelsey, Steve Lizotte, Tom Dougherty, Trace Taylor and Vicky Curry.

Also, thanks go to President Grant and the Organizing Committee Co-Chairs Rick Rockne and Bobbie Wolff. Bobbie took all the pictures used in the video loop (except for headshots) that ran on the screen during the event. Pictures taken the night of the event will be posted online soon.

Last, but certainly not least, the Nevada Local thanks those terrific talent agents and casting directors who spread the word for us: Jaki Baskow, Julie Goldman, Jorina King, Marilee Lear and many others who honored us with their presence and assistance.

We will start planning next year’s event much earlier. If you’d like to lend a hand, contact SAG-AFTRA Nevada Local President Barbara Grant at nevadapresident@sagaftra.org.

Thank you to all who came out — and to all, a good night.
