We're up and working before the sun comes up. Thanks to the brands you see on these banners for backing the cause and all the good things we're up to with Grind for Life.

Braden with early morning hurricane.

The registration line was shorter than ever at this stop? Why? Because most of you are signing up online now. That means you can completely skip this wait in line and go right to skating. You also save $5. Register online next time and make it easier on not just yourself, but the whole process in general. Thanks, y'all!
