Dear Derby Friends and Family,

Your Ithaca SufferJets are preparing to stamp the passports of Ottawa's Capital
Carnage good and hard this Saturday as we host our North American neighbors in
our first-ever international roller derby bout!

We enjoyed a huge Ithaca welcome back to Cass Park last month during our home
season opener.  As we rolled to victory, you guys rocked the house!  We hope to
see you (and hear you!) back on the sidelines Saturday.

  Cass Park Rink
Doors open at 7:00 pm, bout begins at 7:30
DJs Bob and Luke will keep the tunes spinning.
A portion of the proceeds of this bout will benefit RIBs (Recycle Ithaca's
Bicycles)
Come on down and watch us roll around!

You rock.  we roll,
Sarabellum

Greetings fans and friends:

We're now opening up our Wednesday practice to interested 
skaters for a roller derby style workout!

When? 7-9pm on Wednesdays
Where? Cass Park Rink
Who? Anyone! Men and Women welcome
How much? $5/session

What do I need to skate?
All you really need are skates, helmet, pads and mouthguard. If you're doing this for the fun of it and for great exercise - then lower price items work just fine.

Is there hitting involved? No. We'll focus on non-hitting drills, endurance, & skating skills. 

How do I sign up? 

We do have some spare gear (helmets, pads, skates) however our new recruits in training for the team have first dibs! We'd just have to sort out who needs what at the beginning of practice.... We are also looking into 
purchasing some more skates for people to borrow. If you have any skates you'd like to donate to the league we'd sure appreciate it!

See you at the rink!
Meow

Hey Fans, Friends, and Family,

Sarabellum here.  And I am chomping at the bit in anticipation of our
home season opener on May 30th (the Saturday of Ithaca Festival) when
we take on Rochester's Roc City Rollers at our own Cass Park Rink.

As many of you know, it takes a village to raise a roller derby bout.
Besides the referees and skaters we always need volunteers to track
penalties, work the door, help with crowd control, run the penalty
boxes, sell our fantastic merch, and the very important role of
running the scoreboard!  (wink wink!)  Here's a call-out to you,
people of the village:

If any of you out there would like to help make our 2009 home season
opener a success by filling a supporting "roll" please let us know!
The doors open at 7 pm, and the first whistle blows at 7:30.

You rock, we roll.

yours,
Sarabellum

rolling!), get recruited as a skater or referee, find out about upcoming games,
or buy some of our fabulous SufferJets merchandise!

Korova is at 214 The Commons (east state street) in between Aurora and Tioga

Hey fans and friends!

Just a heads up that we'll be stirring up the derby hot pot this
weekend at the Ithaca Chili Festival. If you need some chili relief,
swing by our table near Mate Factor to say hi, pick up some merch, the
2009 season schedule, to get recruited as a skater, ref or sponsor; or
to hear the details of our exciting victory last Sunday.

It's chilli out there!  But things in derby land are heating up!

Cheers,
Sarabellum

Dear Fans, Friends, and Family;

After dancing the night away to the Sutras at the SufferJets Sweet and
Tart Valentine's Saturday Soiree, we rose on Sunday, hot to hit the
rink; ready to compete in our first bout of the '09 season.

Last night your Ithaca SufferJets teamed up with their Syracuse
comrades and, calling themselves "the Ice Queens,"  they took on the
Hellions of Troy in "a bout of fire and ice."

Though behind at halftime, the Ice Queens dominated the second half
and took the game 131 Ice Queens : 98 Hellions.

An excellent start to the second season of Ithaca roller derby madness!

Coming up next:  The Ithaca SufferJets take on the Sisters of Mayhem
in Hackettstown, New Jersey on March 21st.  Check out the website for
the complete season schedule.

Thanks for your support!

As always...

You rock, we roll.

Sarabellum

(note 2 important and artful attachments)

Dear Fans & Friends

 

This is a big weekend for your Ithaca SufferJets!  We are rolling in the new 2009 season with not one, but TWO big events this weekend.  We hope you can make it!

 **

The first event is  the first-ever SufferJets Valentines Day Party, featuring live music by one of our favorite bands- the Sutras.  That’s the SufferJets + Sutras at Castaways at 9 pm until late.   We’ll have great door prizes, nibblies to keep you dancing, and we’ll be announcing the 2008 SufferJets Appreciation Awards.  Come find out who among you has been selected as the “Fan of the Year” and which big trap in town is getting the “Word of Mouth Award.”  Castaways is located on the inlet, across from Island Fitness at 413 Taughannock Boulevard.

Tickets for this event are 2 for $20 in advance or $15 at the door.  Advance tickets are being sold at Castaways, Petrune, Korova, Felicia’s atomic Lounge, and Volume records.   Bring your advance-purchase ticket to Petrune for 10% off your vintage party get-up. 

**

Then on Sunday, the SufferJets will join forces with the Syracuse Psycho Dolls as “Central New York’s Ice Queens” as they take on the Hellions of Troy in a bout of fire and ice!  The match is the first of our season, and the first of a short series of “away” games.  We’d love to see some SufferJets fans in the crowd, so head on up to The Fun Spot in Queensbury, NY on Sunday, 2/15.  Doors open at 6 pm, the first whistle blows at 7.  Queensbury is about 30 minutes north of Albany.  Suf-fer-Jets!  Suf-fer-Jets!  Suf-fer-Jets!

 

We are trying to organize a fan van for away games, please e-mail info@... if you are interested in driving or helping organize this effort.

 We hope to see you all out there this weekend as the SufferJets kick off their second season of action-packed roller derby fun!

 Thanks for all the support out there!  You rock, we roll.

Your roller derby servant, 

Sarabellum

Dear Fans, Family, and Friends,

Happy New Year!

The Ithaca League of Women Rollers, more commonly known by their team
name, the SufferJets, is recruiting referees for their second season of
hootin' and hollerin' sporty  ROLLER DERBY fun!

* There are roles for skating refs as well as non-skating refs.
* We can teach you the rules and teach you how to skate.  No experience
required.
* Referee gigs are a great way to be involved with the derby league if
you: * are not a woman (refs can be of any gender), or * don't want to
fully commit to being a team skater, or *want to be involved but fear
injury.
* Being a referee requires less commitment.  We only ask that you come to
practice occasionally (though you are always welcome!) and if possible,

Hi Girls,

I won't be at practice tonight because I've decided to wait for my new
skates which are due to arrive July 1st, just in time for Tuesday's
practice. I ordered a nice pair of Riedell R3s with jump bars-anyone
know anything about them? My new helmet and wrist guards just arrived
today.

Surprisingly, I'm not in that much pain after Tuesday's ghastly fiasco
where I was a quivering mess and falling all over. I could barely walk
when I got home and was scared I would be paralyzed by morning, but
these last 2 mornings I really haven't been that sore. It's a miracle!
Hopefully that groin muscle will build strength up with each practice
and eventually I'll be able to do those drills without using my hands.
Talk about a big, fat, juicy slice of humble pie! Ouch!

Have a great practice. See ya Tuesday!  :0)

Hey, sorry that I'm not at practice tonight. I got out of work late
and forgot that there was a practice today until I looked at the
schedule (which is at my computer all the way out in caroline). I
promise I won't be lame next week and show up on Tuesday. Also, does
anyone know if we got our order from sincity skates in yet. If so, how
much do I owe for my outdoor wheels? I will see you all Tuesday!

Derby Fans, celebrate Father's Day on Sunday, June 15th with Roller Derby at Cass Park!

The Ithaca SufferJets, fresh off a victory from their May bout, are ready to keep their winning streak alive. This Sunday, Father's Day, they'll meet that challenge as they take on Utica's Asylum City Lunatics in their first annual, "Who's Your Daddy?" bout.

Between periods, Ithaca's own Urban Horse Thieves (www.urbanhorsethieves.com) will play "outlaw americana" live for all of the roller derby faithful. A Father's Day extravaganza, the evening will be full of roller derby, raffles, music, and between-period entertainment, with colorful commentary by guest announcers and WVBR.

Last month hundreds of supporters witnessed the Ithaca SufferJets battle itout for a thrilling last minute 84-81 victory. Find out more at IthacaRollerDerby.com.

Post-bout after party will be at Korova (214 E. State) with music continuing by the Urban Horse Thieves.

This month's bout spotlight cause is the Ithaca Skate Park. The Ithaca Skate Park provides important recreational space for area skaters and is in need of renovations. A portion of the donations will be given to the Temuchin Park Fund (www.temparkfund.com).

  • What: Ithaca SufferJets Roller Derby Bout
  • Date: Sunday, June 15
  • Time: Doors @ 5:30
