UPDATE:
 CLICK HERE

to see
my pics from the Skating Party!



Diesel Doll called me and suggested we post a reminder about the construction project on I-696/Halstead Road overpass.

Scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. on Friday, April 17, eastbound and westbound I-696 will be closed between M-5 and US-24 (Telegraph Road) for crews to demolish Halsted Road over I-696, half of the bridge that carries eastbound and westbound I-696 over Drake Road, and portions of the barrier wall on the overpass that carries Orchard Lake Road over I-696. During the full closure, I-696 traffic will use US-24, M-102 (Eight Mile Road), and M-5 as the posted detour.


So -- just a little inconvenience in that area, but the Skating Party will be in full swing!!!

RIVERSIDE ARENA

Holly Hitsville is one of the newer Detroit Derby Girls and she skates with D-Funk All Stars. Holly also writes a section of the "news" page at the Detroit Derby Girls website called "Holly's Hits" -- where you can read items written with an inside angle, by a Detroit Derby Girl.

Take a look at Holly Hitsville's interviews with a few of the Windy City Rollers. MySpace doesn't seem to like direct links to the website...so copy & paste the address below and take out the spaces and see the interviews here:
