We’re back from RollerCon! Miss us? Of course you did. We missed you too. <<ToRD HUGZ!!! >> You know what we didn’t miss? The humidity. I like being able to breathe easily. Speaking of lake effect, on Saturday August 21st, ToRD is happy to bring you a WICKED SWEET DOUBLE HEADER! (best. segue. ever.)

Saturday August 21st, CN Power will face off against the Buffalo (NY, and wings!) Lake Effect Furies – but that’s not all! Preceding that bout of hardcore awesomeness, ToRD’s Rookie team, the D-VAS will face off against the newly formed Durham Region Roller Derby team. You get all this double header action for the same price as a regular bout! Can I hear you say “HELLZ YEAH!”?

Doors open at 5pm, the first bout kicks off at 6. Where at? The Hangar, Downsview Park – home of ToRD! As always, ToRD bouts are family friendly, so bring the whole gang – kids 9 and under are FREE!

Concerned about missing your dinner to watch us play? No worries, we totally thought about that! There is pizza and pop for sale at all ToRD bouts, so you can get your munchies on. As a happy bonus, we’re also a licensed event, so you can wash your pizza down with a nice cold brewski if that’s your flavour.

Click here for details about purchasing tickets.

Also currently for sale is the next ToRD regulation bout – Death Track Dolls vs. the undefeated (since pre-2009!) Gore-Gore Rollergirls! It’s going to be vicious…ly awesome!

Why not buy tickets to both? You should – you know you’ll be there anyways. The season runs through the summer months, and before you know it it’ll be over *tear* so you should get your fix now!
