If we miss you, it’s not because we don’t appreciate you, because we are truly thankful for everyone who helped us get to this point!

Thanks to:

  • Northside Stranglers- Coach Groper Cleavage, and to the skaters, thank you so much for coming out and skating on our slippery floor! You are awesome and we love you all!
  • Our fresh meat that helped with everything, many coming in at noon and not leaving til it was all over! You all are awesome and we can’t wait until you’re on the rink with us!
  • The Referees and NSOs. We couldn’t have a bout without you and we’re so thankful for you all, many of whom traveled pretty far to come help us out.
  • Troch, coach of Rocktown Rollers, for loaning us their track and for all the moral support he’s offered!
  • Demolition Durga for making the drive from Richmond to co-announce.
  • Andy Waldeck for doing the lighting
  • Lea Calvani’s mom for manning the ticket booth!
