| It's Getting Closer! |
| We're nearing the end of our unofficial 2008 season with only two public scrimmages left. Your second-to-last chance to see your favorite rollergirls in action this year is going to be on Sunday, August 17th. We'll be going against the Derby City Rollergirls from Louisville, KY with doors opening at 11:00 a.m. at our usual stomping grounds (AKA Skateworld of Kettering on E. David Rd.). Your entry fee is a measly $2 donation to help keep our beloved league up and running. Come see us before it's too late! |

| FREE Roller derby! |
| Are you a fan who misses watching your Gem City Rollergirls play? Are you a potential recruit who can't decide if you want to skate or referee for us? Well, let us feed your need. On Sunday, July 20th, we're having a FREE public scrimmage with the NEO Rock-n-Rollergirls from Akron, Ohio. We're opening the doors during our normal practice time so that you can get a taste of roller derby in Dayton. Join us at Skateworld of Kettering at 1601 E. David Rd. from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. You don't have to pay to get it, but donations to league will be greatly appreciated. |

| Studio/Show |
| Well, we have our studio close to being rebuilt. For those of you who don't know, we had some water damage and needed to address the issue. All is good now and we'll be back to mixing and finalizing our 3rd CD!
In the meantime we've managed to pick up a couple of local shows. Be sure to visit the "Shows" page for all info. The first is this Saturday supporting our friends Captain of Industry for their CD release. Should be a good one.
More soon.
Cheers,
