Q. Who is hosting this event?
A. The Wildwood Convention Center is the home of the South Jersey Derby Girls. But the CCRE is not advertising that they are hosting the event as a lot of WFTDA-aspiring and OSDA skaters are contributing to the event's success. We want to make it as open and friendly to everyone as possible, and allow a forum for skaters to truly showcase their talents.
