CANADIAN LUGE ATHLETES RETURN TO ROOTS OF SPORT TO LAUNCH NATIONAL FOR SALE CAMPAIGN
The media conference will be held at Reservoir Park (corner of John Laurie Boulevard and Edgemont Drive) in Calgary on Tuesday, February 10 at 11 a.m.
In conjunction with the announcement the Canadian team will join forces with inSeries Media to also launch a comedy web series. Faster than hockey, edgier than alpine skiing, hipper than half-pipe snowboarding, and spandexier than skating. For the next 12 months, this series will lead Canadians down the track to the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in which Canadian athletes will make cameo appearances.
Details of the Luge World Cup in Calgary will also be released at the media event.
