Featured Beerleader- Kim n' Tonic

profile by Hannah Mog
The Brewcity Beerleaders have become an important component to not only the Bruisers themselves but to the elaborate bouts put on each month. Standing on the sidelines, dressed according to the particular theme of that bout, the Beerleaders add energy and theatrics to an already exciting sporting event. The co-captain and “drill bitch” of the Beerleaders is Kim N' Tonic. She a prime example of the Beerleaders, with energy to spare and an upbeat attitude she exemplifies her squad. In her role as a co-captain she not only helps conduct practices but spends much of her time coordinating the correspondence between the teams and the Beerleaders.
Some of the girls in the Beerleaders were not interested in becoming a derby player from the beginning while others, like Kim N' Tonic, were too late in signing up and all positions were filled. Another chance for involvement came when Jesse Jameson, one of the founding members of the league, suggested to Kim that she try out for the Leaders. As a member she is not only involved in her team but the league as a whole. Kim N' Tonic plans on continuing her involvement in the league and would like to thank all the derby girls for their acceptance of the Beerleaders into the organization.
