nbclosangeles.com - The Derby Dolls Care About You

The roller stars are hosting a free health fair.
Bandages? The occasional shiny dab of ointment? A sling here and there?
These are not uncommon sights at the Doll Factory, thanks to the fact that the Derby Dolls are famed for some rough-and-tumble, no-holds-barred skating. If you've ever seen a clutch of blockers attempting to thwart a jammer's best get-through efforts, you know the occasional elbow or knee can make hard contact.
Which is one reason the Derby Dolls care about keeping the body on the up-and-up. The other reason? They're nice. Super nice. So nice they're once again hosting their annual free health fair on Saturday, Aug. 27.
