From a poster illustrated by referee and league member Dvo Snyder of Royal Crown Drawing and Design to a zombie zumba halftime show to a costume contest, the event ties thematically to the fall Oswego Zombie Crawl.

The crawl, where zombie enthusiasts dress up for a spirited walk around downtown Oswego, debuted last year and planners are targeting an Oct. 6 walk this year.

Oswego YMCA Zumba dancers will perform a zombie-themed halftime show, and a  portion of the bout proceeds will support the Oswego YMCA Strong Kids campaign.

Members of the public are invited to come dressed as zombies or zombie hunters. A zombie costume contest will take place, with winners receiving tickets to a future Oz Roller Girls bout.

In addition, the Oz Roller Girls are holding a school-supplies drive for the Stuff A Bus program for students in the Oswego School District, and will accept donated items at the bout.

An after-party at Greene’s Ale House invites fans to meet both teams.

Tickets cost $15 for trackside VIP, $10 for general admission, $5 for children 4 to 12 with kids 3 and under admitted free.
