NHL Alumni take to the ice for the CE Franklin 3-on-3 Challenge
CALGARY, Sept. 6, 2011 /CNW/ - NHL alumni will be hitting the ice
for a great cause at the second annual CE Franklin 3-on-3
Challenge, a hockey tournament in support of Calgary Health Trust,
on Saturday, September 10, 2011. Former Calgary Flames forward
Craig Conroy is the Celebrity Chair for this year's tournament. "CE
Franklin is a proud supporter of Calgary Health Trust and the
important work that they do," says President and Chief Executive
Officer Michael West. "We are very excited to once again host this
family event in support of Neonatal Intensive Care Units in
Calgary." Several NHL alumni, including former Calgary Flames Rene
Corbet, Jeff Shantz and Lindsey Carson, will take to the ice with
players from the community at the Don Hartman North East
Sportsplex. Family and friends are also invited to participate in
this great day of hockey, food and family fun. Admission is free.
There will be a KidsZone open from 11a.m. - 2 p.m., as well as a
visit from 2010 Olympic gold medalist Christine Nesbitt. Tournament
proceeds will enhance equipment in Neonatal Intensive Care Units at
the Foothills Medical Centre, Peter Lougheed Centre and Rockyview
General Hospital. These units provide specialized, high- level care
to sick and premature newborns, helping them survive the most
critical situations. Approximately 10 per cent of the 20,000 babies
born annually in Calgary receive care in the NICUs. Patricia and
Warren Nielsen experienced the exceptional care the NICUs provide
first-hand when their daughter, Marilyn, was born two months early,
weighing only three pounds. "It was scary at first, but the staff
in the NICUs helped settle us. It's a really calm, supportive
environment, and I can't say enough about the people who work
there," says Patricia. "It was the best place for Marilyn to be and
the staff really took care of us, too." Last year's CE Franklin
3-on-3 Challenge raised $155,000 for NICUs in Calgary. The money
helped purchase a hybrid warmer and cardio respiratory monitors for
the units. For more information about this event, visit
