In the March 21th 2008 Tri-City Herald article "Mama said knock you out" Bethany Lee wrote a great article on the Atomic City Rollergirls. It is incredible to see how far we have come since then.

In the May 2009 KNDO/KNDU news story Roller Derby Girls Get Physical interviewed some skaters.

"I think women have  a lot of sides to them, a lot of layers to them," said rollergirl Laila Ghan.  "This is just an outlet for their alter-egos to come out.  I'm a nurse and a mom, and at the end of the day it's my outlet."

"I'm a mother and a wife and I cook and clean," said Jill Knight. "I take out all my frustrations on the track."

On July 25th 2009 the Atomic City Rollergirls traveled to Eugene OR, home of the and faced off against Emerald City Rollergirls's Androme-Dolls.

On September 12th 2009 your Atomic City Rollergirls faced off against a team from Spokane's Lilac City Rollergirls. The theme of the bout was "Nukes of Hazzard County". These awesome photos were taken by Scott Butner.

On 12/15/2009 ACRG's own Bunny Rabid, Valdeath and Schwanna Boom Boom got up super early to represent ACRG on KAPP/KVEW's Good Morning Northwest. They told folks all about the "Nightmare Before Christmas" domestic violence benefit concert that was at Ray's Golden Lion.

On an early cold Saturday morning derby girls from all over Eastern Washington and Eastern Oregon came to the ACRG Rollerderby Boot Camp 2010. The Wallawalla Sweets Rollergirls represented in full force.

Awesome derby photography from The Beaks! Thanks!
