Emma Trent - Representing Team USA



Willie and Lisa Trent – Owners of the Empire Roller Rink have a fabulously talented daughter. Emma Trent, 16 years old, qualified this past July at the National Artistic Roller Skating Competition in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The Event she qualified for is JWC Figures. The World Championship only takes 2 skaters (per Event) from the United States. It is clearly an honor for the entire Trent Family that Emma gets to represent Team USA. This Championship is considered the Olympic Level for Artistic Roller Sports. The Championships will be held in Brasilia, Brazil with a total of twenty-four Countries entered.

In addition to Emma’s skating, she is a straight A student at North Callaway High School (Junior), and is a member of their Marching Band playing the Clarinet. Other activities that Emma enjoys is Jazz Band & Piano. Living on a farm, she has a love for animals too.

Willie Trent, a lifetime resident of Columbia and has been the sole owner of Empire Roller Rink. Many people will remember skating both the “old” and “newer” roller rink. Lisa Trent, presently coaches Artistic Roller Skating at Empire and enjoys teaching this sport. Team Empire has several National Champions of its own! Emma Trent also teaches Artistic.

Willie, Lisa and Emma Trent will be fundraising for this upcoming opportunity. Funds will be used for travel expenses to Brazil for Emma and her Coach, John Peck, to attend the Championships. They are hoping to get enough money through gifts and/or donations for Willie and Lisa to attend also.

Anyone who is able to give a donation, please contact Willie Trent at (573) 443-7375 or mail to below address. Any amount is APPRECIATED !!!
