Click here to see how you can become a partner at the new Enerplex!
The Enerplex, located adjacent to Centennial Park, is a state-of-the art recreation facility and special event centre capable of hosting a wide range of activities. First floor ice facilities will include 2 NHL sized ice rinks, with boards and benches complete with protective netting.
The second floor of the facility features the raised speed skating oval, one of only three indoor Olympic sized long tracks in North America. Made with a concrete base, this level can also be used as additional seating and for other events with 60,000 square feet of usable space.
The third floor features a three lane walking track for use year round. It is 380 m in length and features a rubberized running surface.
The facility has the capability to remove all ice surfaces in the summer months, to accommodate major indoor sporting events, concerts, cultural events, tradeshows, rodeos, conventions and more.
The Enerplex will create a lasting legacy that will shape the future of the Energetic City for years to come. It will be a centre of excellence for sports, promote community and personal wellness, and provide an attractive venue for events appealing to a wide range of interests.
The Enerplex will be open to the public in the fall of 2009.
The City is looking to forge mutually beneficial partnerships between the private and public sectors. For the corporate partner, the various naming rights opportunities can mean far more than the traditional advertising and marketing buys. These unique community-based promotions give a selected corporation a chance to showcase its name at Fort St John’s newest recreation facility, while creating a cost efficient method to advertise and brand itself to the many users and spectators that will frequent the facility.
For the City, revenues obtained through sponsorships will be directed back into the Enerplex facility budgets to assist in attracting new events and in continued facility capital improvements.
Congratulations to the following confirmed partners in the Enerplex:
