'Tis The Season For Giving...

Each year, Costar Video Systems takes time to celebrate the holiday season as a 'family' by hosting an annual Christmas Party for its employees and their significant others. This year we hosted our Christmas Party at Farina's Winery and Cafe in Grapevine, Texas. It was a wonderful evening filled with food, fun and family. In conjunction with this annual event, Costar Video Systems and its employees also give back. This year, we chose to partner with The Salvation Army of Lewisville to adopt angels from the Angel Tree program.
