Most would have a hard time thinking roller derby and charity would fit in the same sentence but nothing is further from the truth when talking about the Rat City Roller Girls in Seattle. These women skate fast, sacrifice their bodies for the sport and also work with nonprofits to raise money and awareness. Last Saturday the Throttle Rockets partnered with Young Survival Coalition for the RCRG charity bout. The skaters wore pink t-shirts and raised $300 for  the local YSC affiliate. YSC also raised money at the information table where they raffled off the “Bust” of  the Throttle Rocket’s own Co-Captain, Sirius Mischief.  I have to believe many fans came away with a better understanding that breast cancer has no age boundaries and we can have fun talking about our breasts and keeping them healthy. Here are a few pictures from the night. I know I will return for another night of roller derby and cheer for the Throttle Rockets!
