Ottawa – City Hall will be hosting another week of free activities and special events that provide something for every taste and interest – from physical fitness to music and culture.

Remember, this Saturday, August 2, the Capital City Derby Dolls (CCDD) will be rolling into City Hall’s Marion Dewar Plaza for the second annual Derby Day. The event will see roller derby house-league competitions, along with two major tilts when CCDD’s Dolly Rogers battle the Alliston Striking Vikings and the CCDD’s Dolinquents collide with Alliston’s Bombshell Battalion. The day also includes games and delicious food. It runs from noon to sundown, and the rain date is Sunday, August 3.

Here are the regularly scheduled activities for this week:
