LISTEN UP, FOLKS!

Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation (CSEC) is proud to announce its first-ever 'United by Community Day' to be held on Wednesday, November 18th from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. This unique event will be broadcast live on Sportsnet 960-The Fan and streamed on the Calgary Flames social media platforms.

The day will highlight the community work of the four CSEC foundations and their partners while giving fans, listeners, and viewers the opportunity to hear from some of the biggest names in sports with ties to the Flames, Hitmen, Roughnecks and Stampeders. This one-of-a-kind format also provides the chance for fan interaction through questions via text at 960960 and social media using the hashtag #UnitedByCommunity.
"We speak about the power of sport and what it means to our community, that is what this day is all about," explains Candice Goudie, executive director of the CSEC Foundations. "Not only will listeners hear from notable sports personalities, but they will also hear stories from community partners that are heartfelt, impactful - and interesting. The impact of sport in this community can be felt broadly and we hope to provide something uplifting and positive in these challenging times. Be sure to tune in or follow online!"

Each hour of the broadcast will feature different guests. The confirmed lineup includes Bret "The Hitman" Hart, Jarome Iginla, Lanny McDonald, Dave Dickenson, Mark Giordano, Ryan Getzlaf, Dane Dobbie, Curtis Dickson, Christian Del Bianco, Brad Treliving, Chris Snow and Geoff Ward.
