I addition, we will be collecting monetary donations or gently used winter hats, gloves, mittens, and scarves for youth and teens in support of Open Your Heart to the Hungry and Homeless.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Adam Turner describes himself as having led a “mildly adventurous life.” After younger days of world travel and adventure, his current life is filled with local craft brews, poker, competitive snow sculpting, and tattooing. He spends his days working as a creative director, and shares that he loves coming home to his lovely wife, Laura, and his wonderfully creative daughter, Addie.
Adam was introduced to the Minnesota RollerGirls when his snow sculpting team, the Snow Cowboys, were competing at the St. Paul Winter Carnival. The organizer of the event spoke very highly of us RollerGirls, and eventually this inspired Adam to enter our poster contest. His design is inspired by Northern Minnesota and his time spent as a canoe guide in the Boundary Waters. The ferocious tenacity of the wolf is a great representation of the Minnesota RollerGirls, and fits perfectly with our bout theme, Pack Mentality.
