Help Support the Detroit Derby Girls
Posted on June 26, 2012
Hey DDG friends and supporters!
Chase & Living Social want to give a small business $250,000! We want that small business to be The Detroit Derby Girls!
The DDG is skater owned and operated, but we, as skaters, do not profit from the league. Every dollar made through merchandise, ticket sales or fundraisers go right back to the league to pay for venue rental (both practices and bouts), travel team(s) expenses, swag, marketing materials, uniforms, etc.
Please take a few moments to log onto (log on through Facebook)
https://www.missionsmallbusiness.com/
Search ‘Detroit Derby Girls’ (it is case sensitive) and submit your vote by June 30.
If you can, please post what # your vote is and help us spread the word!
Thanks for supporting your Deeeeeetroit Derby Girls!
