No, we didn’t have Neil Diamond, but we did have all the sultry goodness of Minneapolis in August, plus all the other delicious things that come with skating in a small-town parade: warm tootsie rolls, marching bands, and children dressed as fruit at the St. Anthony Parade
Yes, there were also Vikings cheerleaders, but Rhea Lentless’ son scoffed and explained it this way, “Well, they may be cheerleaders, but we have cheerleaders.” One of the many things that make the North Star Roller Girls more fun than all the other Minneapolis sports put together.
Hey, raising awareness of our league and it season is hard work. Those schedules don’t hand themselves out. Many thanks to the good people of St. Anthony for inviting us out there!
