Dangerous Waters Premiere & Meet Steven Moll (show star) at the DC

Have you seen the trailer for the new Dangerous Waters Reality TV show?  All we can say is “OMG!!”  It looks like an adrenaline rush of a show and it features the ‘dangerous waters’ of Alaska.  Beautiful and powerful, it’s Alaska seen on a SkiDoo through the eyes of five men who happen to be crazy and brave enough to make the trip from Seattle to Russia.  CLICK HERE to see the Dangerous Waters trailer!

So what does the DC have to do with this??  WELL, GCI is hosting a premiere party in the Old Navy hallway this Friday from 5pm-7pm and STEVEN MOLL, star of the new TV reality series, will be HERE AT THE MALL to chat about his adventures, sign autographs, & watch the premiere with all of us!  GCI is providing pizza and drinks and the TV, of course!

This is going to be one fun event!  Make sure to head down to the DC this Friday, March 30th at 5pm for the Dangerous Waters premiere and meet the star, Steven Moll!
