Unleash the Beasts with the Gallatin Roller Girlz’ first home bout of the season! Join the Gallatin Roller Girlz for the adventure of the summer as they kick off the 2016 home season with Jurassic Block! on Saturday, May 14th at the Gallatin County Fairgrounds’ Haynes Pavilion. GRG’s Mountain Mayhem will face off against the Portneuf Valley Bruisers from Idaho Falls. This prehistoric showdown promises gameplay with all the hind power of the Ankylosaurus, the cunning of a velociraptor, and the ferocity of a T-Rex! Paleontologists, archaeologists, and dinosaurs are encouraged for this Jurassic-themed event. Costumed attendees aged 18+ get first crack at limited trackside seating (aka Suicide or Nose Bleed seats) and coupons for free ice cream! This family-friendly event features food by Bubby’s, a no-host bar by Bar IX, raffles, games, and prizes. Music by DJ Chachi. Tickets for Jurassic Block are $8 in advance and $10 at the door. KIDS 10 and under enter for FREE! Advance sale tickets are available at Cactus Records and Gifts and online at grgderby.com/. Doors open at 7pm, and the Bout starts at 7:30pm with an after party to follow at Bar IX.
A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit HRDC’s Community Café–Montana’s only pay what you can café, providing a welcoming atmosphere with a warm, nutritious meal.

The Gallatin Roller Girlz are a 501(c)3 federal non-profit and achieved WFTDA (Women’s Flat Track Derby Association) apprenticeship designation this past year.
