NAC Roller Derby Field Trip
Death Track Dolls vs the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad (D-VAS)
Bus leaves NAC Saturday 5 July at 3pm, returns after midnight
$45 includes: trip, ticket, dinner!

The Niagara Artists' Centre is strapping on the quads and going to the roller derby!

Saturday 5 July NAC is sponsoring a trip to Toronto for dinner, drinks, and hot women's roller derby action. That night, the Death Track Dolls take on the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad (the D-VAS) in a grudge match more than a year in the making.

Forget those hoary memories of Skinny Minnie Miller vaulting opponents over the siderails in the 1970s. That wasn't derby, baby; that was more like professional wrestling. What you get on 5 July is the real deal that's sweeping North America and Europe as the fastest-growing new sport: flat-track action, women of all sizes, shapes and speeds jostling on a tight track, sweating it out for points and nursing real, serious injuries, from torn ACLs to broken jaws.
