Media are invited to join ENMAX Corporation at The Corral on Stampede Park on Thursday, July 7 from 3:15 to 4:00 p.m. as families and other clients from the Aspen Family Network and The Distress Centre arrive to watch the final dress rehearsal of the ENMAX Ice Show.

“The Calgary Stampede is a cultural icon for Calgarians, Albertans and even Canadians and ENMAX is proud to be a long-time supporter of The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth,” said Charles Ruigrok, interim President and CEO, ENMAX. “This year we are the sponsor of the ENMAX Ice Show, an amazing show that we hope all visitors, in particular our special guests from Aspen and the Distress Centre, will enjoy.”

ENMAX has also been a long-time supporter to a number of community groups. Aspen, a charitable human service agency, annually hosts the Winter Breather Campaign which benefits clients by easing utility bills during the coldest months of the year. ENMAX employees also contributed to the campaign by providing hundreds of toys to Aspen families in 2011. Additionally, ENMAX recently began working with the Distress Centre, a non-profit social agency that delivers 24-hour support, counselling and resource referral services to Calgary and the surrounding area. The Distress Centre is routinely provided with event and entertainment tickets that are distributed to their clients, a reprieve from the stresses of everyday life.

A FREE photo booth will also be set up by ENMAX in the Corral where all visitors can have their picture taken as a star.
