This thread is totally devoted to Joshua Burton, and is intended to be an archive of his skating career - as well as a place to chat about his accomplishments and encourage him as he pursues his goals both on and off the ice.

If you have any articles, photos, links and news about Joshua (past or present), we'd love to see them!

Some of the info gathered here will be used for Joshua's bio page on Rocker-U. (see www.rocker-u.net/index_of_skaters.htm ).

If you are a non-member who would like to contribute news, photos, archives or comments, please feel free to contact us at:

Okay, the light bulb has finally been lit (sometimes it takes awhile). I now know that Joshua Burton's dad is Steve Burton, who is a major player in the Virginia Elite Speedskating Team - see the complete article at:
