Hello to the Rose City Rollers. I am a father of 2 young girls who have yet to watch a bout yet, but that will change soon. I promise. My daughters attend Jason Lee K-8 out under Rocky Butte and I am an active member of the PTA. We are a diverse school that is always trying for new ways to raise money for the school and the kids. Our main fundraiser is our school carnival that is being held on 6/1. Each of the past 4 years, this carnival has grown exponentially and I don't see this year being any different. The theme of the carnival is "Get Up And Be Active"-- basically trying to get the kids excited about summer break. We will have carnival games, a dance contest, a wall ball tourney, a demonstration from a jump rope troupe, a rock climbing wall, and an appearance from a member of the Portland Timbers. We think that an appearance from the world renowned Rose City Rollers would be just the finishing touch that is needed for this event to be well rounded. The event will only be 3 hours long-- so it would only be an hour or so of a few team member's time. Please think about it-- the kids (especially the girls) deserve to have strong beautiful women role models participate in our carnival. Thanks for reading this-- I am so excited about our carnival and know that whoever comes out will also have a great time!
