CNY Roller Derby is teaming up with Jams for Tots this year to make local children's holiday season a little more playful! Bring any unwrapped new toy to the Tramontane Cafe between November 15th and December 1st. On December 4th all of the toys collected will be presented to the Jams for Tots event taking place at The Electric Company from 2:00pm-2:00am. CNY Roller Derby will also be donating some of our merch in a gift basket to be auctioned off for the cause. Please join us in making this holiday season special for the kids in the area!
