Roller Skating Day
About This Date A Belgian inventor named Joseph Merlin introduced the first recorded roller skate in 1760. In 1863, James Plimpton, a businessman from Massachusetts, invented a roller skate that could turn. It was called a "rocking" skate -- the first one that really let people skate curves and turn. The National Museum of Roller Skating is located in Lincoln, Nebraska and your can learn more about rollerskating by clicking on the link.
