"I would like to nominate Freek-A-Rella from the Gold Coast Derby Grrls. Freek has had a really tough time as of late to say the least. She was laid off the morning we left to compete in the South Central Regional’s. To make matters worse her boss not only laid her off, but told the employees that he was not going to pay them any money owed them and they could get a lawyer if they wanted. He owed Freek 3 weeks pay. That was pretty much her rent, groceries, and utilities. This single mom did not let anyone on the team know until we got back because she was afraid it would distract from the task at hand of doing our best at regionals. As you can see from the pics on page 2 she not only hid it well but was a great motivator and source of positive energy. Freek is a very special lady and despite her protests we are chipping in to assist her (cub and I took over paying her phone bill). Skating is the only thing that really gives her joy and an escape from life at the moment and I know winning this prize package would show her that no matter how bad things seem sometime your derby family is always there to help.
P.S. If you pick my entry and Free wins please send her my $10 gift certificate too." - Bear Lee Human, Bench Coach, Gold Coast Derby Grrls
