Commemorating Black Roller Skating in Chicago – December 8, 2018

By | April 24, 2018

december-8-2018

The very first day Black people were able to roller skate indoors in Chicago was December 8, 1938. I’m having a roller skating event to commemorate this historical event on December 8, 2018.

Here are the details I have for now:

Date: December 8, 2018

Place: Glenwood Roller Rink, 656 Holbrook Rd, Glenwood, IL 60425

Time: 5 pm – 8 pm

I’m currently working on a title, theme and everything else that comes with planning an event. Contact me if you have any cool ideas.

In the meantime, be sure to save the date and make plans to be there! Tickets will go on sale in June or July.
