Moving on to new projects...

Since the exhibition I have been having lots of interesting conversations with people about Roller Derby and ways of documenting it. Sean O'Brien from the ABC got in contact with me and asked me to do a short slideshow about Change. I decided to focus on Demander 24/7.  I will attach a link to give you some more information about the program and to let you know what it's all about. The slideshow will be up in the first week of September.
ABC Open

Here is the lovely Demander




On other news, there is a big game coming up for the girls in Sydney against the Sydney Roller Derby League. Here is another link if you are interested

In September there is a massive meet in Wollongong with a few leagues competing.
Includes the following NSW/ACT Leagues:

So as you can see, i am going to be a little busy bee for the next few weeks.
So there is really no excuse for not checking out a game. But remember once you take a bite, you'll be hooked for life!!

Oh and here are a few pics from the exhibition

Ok folks, that's all for now.

Wow what an amazing weekend. The exhibition was a hit! I am overwhelmed by the love and support from all the girls from WIRD as well as the beautiful people in my community. I wouldn't of been able to pull it off without them. I'd like to thank Nautilus for playing some great tunes on Sat night. You guys rock! The Headlands Hotel for the great space. All my friends who bought food and other goodies and manned the postcard stall whilst I was busy schmoozing :) So many people, Lana from soulbirdsister for helping me organise the space and promote the night.
