AFSP South Central PA HARD is donating a percent of our bout proceeds to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention South Central PA Chapter
“It doesn’t take much to make a big difference.” The grassroots work we do focuses on eliminating the loss of life from suicide by: delivering innovative prevention programs, educating the public about risk factors and warning signs, raising funds for suicide research and programs, and reaching out to those individuals who have lost someone to suicide. As a part of AFSP’s growing nationwide network of chapters, we bring together people from all backgrounds who want to prevent suicide in our communities. Families and friends who have lost someone to suicide, vulnerable individuals, mental health professionals, clergy, educators, students, community/business leaders, and many others energize our chapter. The South Central Pennsylvania chapter currently covers an eight-county region serving Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Perry and York counties.

how is roller derby played? The objectives of roller derby are relatively simple. Each team fields a single point scoring skater (“Jammer”) whose object is to lap as many opposing skaters as they can. The remaining skaters who aren’t scoring points work both on offense and defense at the same time -- to block the opposing Jammer and to clear a path for their own Jammer.
THE PACK JAMMERS
Well-played roller derby requires agility, strength, speed, control, peripheral vision, communication, and teamwork. For more information: http://www.gothamgirlsrollerderby.com/about/rules
