The Girls Love Dirt (GLD) Tug of War team originated in 1995 under the name of Capital Pullers. Capital Pullers competed both nationally and internationally as an indoor and outdoor club during the ’90s. Following in their footsteps, GLD has won many national championships in both women’s classes as well as the co-ed class with the Mt. Vernon men’s team. As national champions, GLD has had the honor of representing the USA at the outdoor tug of war World Championships in 2000, 2012 & 2014.
