RWOM HISTORY PAGE 2
 
SINCE ITS INCEPTION, THE GROUP HAS EXPERIENCED A CHANGING OF THE RANKS. THROUGHOUT THE YEARS THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL SKATE GROUPS THAT HAVE SPRANG FORTH FROM THE ROLLING WHEELS OF MEMPHIS; THE MEMPHIS WALKERS, THE MEMPHIS CLASSIC WHEELS, 901 GIRLS, AND MEMPHIS DIVA JUST TO NAME A FEW. UNTIL  RECENTLY (2008) FOR YEARS OUR MEMPHIS HOME BASE HAS BEEN LINKED TO THE CRYSTAL PALACE SKATING RINK, AND SKATELAND ON OLD SUMMER ROAD (BURN DOWN 2002) AND NOW IT'S THE EAST END SKATE CENTER ON MT. MORIAH IN MEMPHIS. THE RWOM HAS GIVEN BACK TO THE COMMUNITY THROUGH PARTICIPATION IN VARIOUS ORGANIZATION AND EVENTS SUCH AS:
