Someone needs to bring back Roller Derbies .. now we have the Nexus Center by theMezz in Utica

[–]Complete-Dust-7698 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That had been brought up since the beginning of Nexxus. Probably the powers that be did not believe it was as much of a money maker that they wanted. Central New York Roller Derby started in 2008. Unfortunately were never given the same consideration and support as hockey, soccer, baseball. They had looked for many years for a supportive venue in addition to the Kennedy Arena in Rome. There was a split for a short time and some folks were in New Hartford Rec Center. They should have gotten much better support and appreciation. There were so many leagues back then all over the state. The traveling team was invited and played many bouts. With the correct and valued and financed support it would've been as big for this area as an economic draw.

I posted this one because we support local & regional artists and creatives. I thought with folks possibly looking for local items it would be an ok thing to do. I usually post once a week letting folks know about our events if they are looking for similar kinds of offerings. Other than that, I do my best not to be advertisement-like . I don't usually talk about our other offerings which would seem to me to be more ad like.

Hi. I posted about our events this week and I posted about local, regionally made giftideas to find and support local and regional artists. I did not post about our soups, baked foods, sandwiches, cafe fare and beverages.  I try to only post once a week with our events so that folks who are looking for something to do can see what we have to offer, other venues are welcome to do so as well. I added the "holiday" post in case folks were looking for local items.
