Fall Shenanigans
By Wreck Therapy
The leaves are falling and the Rideau Valley Roller Girls have been busy as ever.
Our B All-Star team the Sirens finished off their season with a win against the Ithaca BlueStockings, 211-94. Thank you ladies and gents of Ithaca for being such great hosts.
We held our End of Season Gala on October 4, celebrating an amazing season of brand new house teams, D2 victories, bruises, breaks, and personal bests. Thank yous go out to the Fun Committee for putting on a great evening of awards, laughter and fun.
We continued our tradition of community involvement with two of our favourite events. Several skaters came out to Auntie Loo’s 5th Birthday Bash to hand out free samples and taste a cupcake or three. You can always check out these fabulous vegan treats at http://auntieloostreats.ca/. RVRG also came out to show solidarity with Take Back the Night, helping to marshal their annual walk. http://www.wiseottawa.ca/events/take-back-night
The ladies have also been putting on their best booty shorts and sitting pretty for the camera as we put together our 2015 RVRG Calendar. It will soon be available for sale. We are anticipating the first week of November. So don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled and pre-order yours from your favourite RVRG member!
