“Our Fresh Meat class is really a unique experience where you not only get in better shape while building the foundations for roller derby, but you also develop some amazing friendships along the way,” said Diem.


Anyone interested in attending the First Skate event must be 18 or older and should email gsrrecruit@gmail.com to sign up. The cost is $10 per person and loaner gear is available upon request.
