HELLO FELLOW SKATERS, I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS
IT WAS THE YEAR 1998, THAT I WAS INTRODUCED TO ROLLER SKATING BY A CO-WORKER .EVEN THOUGH I WAS FAMILIAR WITH IT BACK IN THE DAY, IN HIGH SCHOOL. HOWEVER, I SAW SOMETHING THAT DAY.YOU CAN SAY THAT IT WAS JUST A DREAM. WELL, I WANTED TO BE THE FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN TO OWN AND OPERATE A ROLLER RINK, HERE IN
I STARTED OUT GIVING SHIRTS AWAY, WITH THE NAME ON THE BACK AND SKATERS HAD THEM ON .THAT BECAME SOMETHING SPECIAL.
WHAT STARTED OUT TO BE A DREAM TURNED INTO SOMETHING GREATER. IN THE YEAR 2000, I MET TWO LADIES WHO TOLD ME ABOUT A
SKATE-A-THON IN ATLANTA GA, SO I PACKED UP AND WENT TO THE ATL .IT WAS CRAZY UP IN THE RINK .EVERY ONE WAS REPPING THERE STATE EXCEPT TEXAS. I MET SOME FELLOW SKATERS FROM TEXAS AND THEN DECIDED TO TAKE THIS TO ANOTHER LEVEL.THE NEXT ATL TRIP WE WILL BE UNIFORMED AND BE CALLED THE SHOWTIME ROLLERS, REPRESENTING DALLAS, TEXAS. IN 2002, WE MADE HISTORY AND HERE WE ARE 2007 HOLDING STRONG.
