    • Taking back the Treasurer job is a huge load to carry. Razor has been in the position for several years now, never being able to successfully pass off the job. We owe her more thanks than couldn’t possibly be given because without her we wouldn’t have a running league right now. The amount of stress that comes with a financial job can be overwhelming- so thank you, Razor, for sticking it out for us all these years. You’re really a saint.
    • because she kicks ass on and off the track. She is a skater with amazing skills and she has great skills for the BOD as well.
    • Where do I begin?! Saving our asses with finance stuff and liquor licenses. Doing more behind the scenes stuff for this league that people probly don’t know about for MANY YEARS. Going above & beyond for Jet so many times. This lady is amazing!
    • She cracks herself up! She cracks me up! She is probably on crack….and steroids! 😉

    • Kickin ass on the track and off with taking on the Treasurer job

    She works her ass off for this league in so many ways. She consistently works to gain and improve her skills and leadership on the track. She rocks merch and gets us things we want. And she’s always there for people to encourage and motivate. She’s amazing.
    Works hard as a captain, teammate and merch person. She is super helpful in everything and has the best attitude.
    She’s an inspiration on skates!
    She works so hard to improve her skills and learn new ones. Gives great feedback and she makes me laugh <3

    She has done so much work for the league—I don’t think half of us know how many times she’s been on the board. She comes to SO MANY of the flyering events too
    Because she me told to. JUST KIDDING. Cia does a lot of behind the scene work that goes unnoticed. She’s always willing to take work on without complaint (well, much anyway bahaha). Cia has steped up in the past when no one else would and took on major roles like president and Bombers Captain two seasons in a row. More importantly- she’s one of our old goats and holds the heart and soul of Jet City. I guess I should change my name to “Cia I-WANNA-bia!
    why wouldn’t I?!
    She has dedicated almost a decade of service to the league. She’s a sucky Alt.1 on a roster, but her work ethic is on point. She aight.
    For all her work on the BOD and behind the scenes to keep Jet running <3
    Observant and supportive

    Stepping up in more ways than one! She’s taking on a lot of responsibility in this league and always does it with a smile and laugh!
    yay! Kicking ass and taking names as BP lead!
    For taking on all the BP stuff. She’s also really funny and great skater!
    She willingly stepped into the role of BP co-lead! I appreciate her hard work for the league <3
    AK tells it like it is, is funny as hell, and has been really stepping up to the plate on all levels derby.
    Because she’s handling her BP lead job like a boss, in addition to wrangling 25 cats as co-captain of the Aviators.

    Making the google form for participation hours
    Her work on the attendance/participation sheets has saved a ton of grief for leads AND skaters, plus her cool head is invaluable on SR. She always has time for a smile and a chat!
    She is relieving headaches! Miracle Worker!
    Because the self-reporting Google form is amazing and she’s done a lot of work for this league! Also, ginger beer.
    All of her work behind the scenes to help our new policies become implemented has been a god send. She also makes kick-ass treats that always come to practice at just the right time. Love you Phearless!!
    all her hard work behind the scenes
    The awesome participation reporting forms!

    She has done an obscene amount of work behind the scenes for Jet and she has been working insanely hard on her performance on the track too!
    Has been working super hard to get our bod/policies organized.
    The amount of work she has put in to organizing the google site, our policies and the board as a whole has been tremendous. Not only is she a key member of our board she is also an amazing teammate!
    Super hard working on and off the track.. behind the scenes working on the BOD and policies

    She has been killing it in all her jobs and then stepping up to be president. Wow! We are lucky to have her on the league. What an inspiring person all around.
    Her growth as a skater since coming to Jet has been by leaps and bounds. She a real go getter, a positive force on and off the track.
    Kat has really brought an amazing energy and passion for derby to Jet City. She has been working tirelessly to improve this league as well as her skills on the track. She’s got a great attitude and is a ton of fun to be around!
    She jumped in with both feet!!! Love this lady and her heart!! She bleeds blue!
    Because AWESOME, duh. She showed up, stepped up, and stepped into to some much needed and amazing roles. Love her on and off the track, she is a huge asset to this league and we are lucky to have her. The work she has done with the DEA (now Ground Crew) has been amazing, that is such an important job and she is wonderful. I know she is going to rock it as our new BOD prez too.
    She’s such a dedicated skater, hard worker and one of my most favorite people in the world <3.

    She’s a pain in the ass most… All of the time. But she wrangles out of town visitors and already has most of our season ready to roll as far as matchup’s. I give her one star for attitude but five stars for getting shit done.
    She’s aw-ight. Lol
    Her interleague prowess and connections are beyond compare. Her organization is impeccable and she is the funniest person I know. Well deserved, Tai!! Love you!!
    Cause she the shit
    heShe is amazing and helpful. She is organized and has helped us work within the derby community. shit
    She works really hard and she is organized!
    She’s like a terrier shaking the shit out a rat when she needs people to get stuff done. Her big mouth has saved me on and off the track. The relationships she is building with other teams will make for a very successful season for us.
    Plus, her embellishing keeps the refs’ eyes on her and not on my forearms.
    She’s such a hardworker, super organized and has our season almost all set up!
