Becoming a Derby Girl: Working at the Car Wash Baby!

We are a skater owned and funded league....which means we actively seek out sponsorships and participate in a lot fundraising events. Our funds that we raise through these events pays for practice space which as you can imagine can get pretty pricey....and we can't learn derby without a place to practice :)

Today we had our first major fundraiser! We had a car wash! Oh which reminds me of a catchy tune....play video below....LMAO ;) Hummm ladies I seriously think we need to do our own video next time!! :)

We had a great time! It started first thing in the morning and lasted all day. Last night was the U2 concert (Which was freaking awesome I have to say!) so the timing of this event was perfect as there were sooooo many people that REALLY NEEDED a car wash...it rained most of yesterday so the concert site was pure mud ...so the timing was perfect! When I say the concert site was muddy....I mean really muddy and I came home with mud up to my knees and from my neck down my backside yes folks I did a mud slide and not because I thought it was a fun thing to do but I slipped and slid about 3 feet down the hill...thanks to the sexy strangers that help pull me out....LOL.....ok I degress...humm sexy strangers...oh no I mean car wash!...LMAO ...boy we washed some dirty cars today! We had a BBQ, and a Bake Sale too. A lot of the girls made baked goods...I didn't because those of you who know me know I cant bake to save my life...but I did get to taste Firecrackya's daughters cupcakes and in two words....PURE HEAVEN!!!! Thanks Amber!

It was a great day and it was great to hang out with everyone outside of practice!

Thanks so much to everyone that came and made donations...your support was incredible and is most appreciated by every single one of us!

Here are a few pictures from today......enjoy :)
