The MAD-ness of fall continues! Monadnock Roller Derby is celebrating our most successful season ever, and using our momentum to bring some great activities ahead:
The Mad Knockers take on Twin State Derby in our final bout of 2017 this Saturday, September 23. Event details here. 7 PM at the Union Arena in Woodstock, VT.
Cheer on our Mad Misfits in a black-and-white scrimmage featuring junior players throughout New England on Saturday, September 30. First whistle at 3:00 PM, at the rink at Brattleboro’s Living Memorial Park. Stay for the Elm City Derby Damez’ game against Worcester, with some of the Mad Knockers guest skating! Same rink, 6:00 PM whistle.
Community Roller Skating Nights are back! If you’re looking for local fun, this is one of the best deals around. Professional music and lights, hot & cold concessions, competitive games, and free skating instruction from real MRD skaters… 
Come join us in the community for a great, active, entertaining night on skates. Next date: Saturday, October 7 from 6-9 PM at Antrim Town Gym.
