Rocky Mountain Roller Girls would like to salute Militia Vandal as the May 2018 Skater of the Month. Militia transferred from our neighboring league DRD where she skated for a number of years, and we happily welcomed her, but didn’t realize what an absolute gem we’d been given until she was turned loose on the Partnership Committee.

In addition to skating, each Rocky skater picks and participates in a committee(s) of their choice, letting their attributes shine in placements like Training, Bout Production, Street Team and so on. Militia very quickly found her niche and distinguished herself as our PHD, “Professional Development Hustler,” and works her tail off on the Partnership Committee. She brings us amazing sponsorship opportunities, including our newest partnership with Tito’s Vodka. Militia also brought in a connection to It Works! supplements whose vendors can be found at RMRG bouts.

Militia’s committee head states that: “We as a league are truly fortunate to have Militia as one of the ‘faces’ of the Partnership team. She’s done an amazing job so far this season with bringing in some awesome new sponsors and vendors. She works as hard off the track for RMRG as she does when her skates are on.”

Militia is also the proud dog mom of the handsome and distinguished Chaz, a Boston Bull Terrier of some repute who will be participating in the dock jumping competition at the GoPro Games in Vail this June. He will no doubt have a cadre of RMRG ladies to cheer him on.

We thank Militia Vandal for her hard work and dedication to RMRG. Forging community connections and sponsorships is a vital element in the growth and sustainability of any team, and every league should be so lucky to have a PHD like ours!
