Special Guests! Skaters from Rat City Roller Derby (both current league skaters and alums) will be there to give pointers and tips to those who might be a little wobbly on their wheels. Rat City celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, and a few lucky attendees will win door prizes, including tickets to the 2024 roller derby season, as well as Rat City and UW merch.

(Bonus article from the UW Magazine archives: Rat City Rollergirls roster is full of hard-hitting UW alumni.)
