Every year, linemen from across Western Canada descend on our beautiful city in an effort to climb their way to victory!
The Lineman Rodeo and Safety Expo provides an opportunity for friends and family to support Alberta's utility workers, as teams and apprentices compete under a judge's watchful eye during the pole climb, hurt man rescue, and two mystery events, in which the participants will learn details just hours before.
Competitors are judged on safety first and foremost, good work practice, neatness and ability, proper equipment handling and timely completion of the tasks. Scoring emphasizes that safety is more important than speed. Within this spirit of competition and fun, ENMAX maintains a focus on safety and safe work practices, while giving well deserved recognition to the technical skills of all utility field crews.
The Safety Expo showcases the latest and most innovative technologies the utility industry has to offer while providing participants and guests the chance to have fun while sharing work knowledge with others in their trade.
The day includes a trade show and loads of activities for the kids including face painting, petting zoo and much more!
