Join us Saturday, August 13th, 2016 for the Rosie Rally!

RSVP Suggested. Click here to RSVP or join our Volunteer List!

We broke the Guinness World Record last year, only to have the Michigan Rosies break it again... Let’s take it back!

Rosie the Riveter/WWII Home Front National Historical Park, along with Rosie the Riveter Trust, the City of Richmond, and other great partners, are hoping for a turn-out of 5,000 to help us break the record for the most people dressed as Rosie the Riveter in one place!

After we break the record, the party will continue with the Home Front Festival in Marina Bay Park until 4:00 pm with music, food and fun! Marina Bay Park is at the corner of Regatta Blvd and Mellville Square in Richmond, California.

WHEN:    Saturday, August 13th.

                 Rosie check-in starts at 10:00 AM.

                 Arrive before 10:30 AM to be counted by Guinness.
