The City of Grande Prairie is thrilled to announce a 10-year naming rights agreement renewal with Eastlink for the Eastlink Centre.

“As a company deeply rooted in community, Eastlink is very proud to extend our longstanding and collaborative partnership with the Centre in Grande Prairie,” said Stephanie Morash, Eastlink Sales and Marketing Manager, Western Canada. “This Centre is a cornerstone of the city and the region as a whole where community gathers in health and wellness, and local events. Centres like this are so vitally important to the overall wellbeing and success of the communities they serve.”

“We are excited to have Eastlink, a long-term supporter of our community, renew their contract with the City. The contract renewal is also a wonderful way to celebrate the Eastlink Centre’s 10-year anniversary,” said Mayor Jackie Clayton. “The family-focused values shared by both Eastlink and the facility makes this the perfect partnership and we are happy continuing our relationship with them for another 10 years.”

Naming rights partnerships contribute to enhanced programs, facilities, projects and services that help enrich people’s lives in the community. This agreement will create a positive impact and benefit not only the facility but also the community and City as a whole.
