Build a roller derby SNOWFAN & Win!

The Ithaca League of Women Rollers is encouraging all fans to build a derby snowfan this weekend! That’s right, get on your snow pants, start rolling up the snowballs and add a little roller derby flair to Frosty’s corn cob pipe and button nose. Send us a picture of your snowfan at info@ithacarollerderby.com

A special ILWR taskforce will be cruisin’ the county looking for snowfans… and leaving fun SufferJets and Bluestockings merchandise in the mailboxes of extra special snowfans!

At work or at home, build your snowfan today and help your ILWR skaters get ready for their 2010 season!

Kung Fool Fighter, who did an astounding job directing the skater-mannequins in the store window with his airplane traffic wands, offers two new names to chew on this week:

Guard ‘er Belt
Bums & Roses

Mannequins in the window

What would the commons be without a little window shopping? Saturday at the Chili Fest was also the debut of our team merch for the BlueStockings, now on sale at Angry Mom Records in the basement of Autumn Leaves Bookstore. Special thanks to Autumn Leaves for indulging us with our window display shenanigans! Photo by John H. Ginsberg-Stevens.

Our intrepid, galavanting jeerleader just returned from a journey to an undisclosed
location where he braved the elements seeking inspiration for more derby names.
We think you’ll agree he’s done it again:

“Roll-o-Decks” (kind of an inside joke)

“Arnold Shorts n’ Leggy”

“J.S. Block”
