Calgary Kart Racing Club Statement:

MAJOR SPONSOR ANNOUNCEMENT

May 11, 2021
The Calgary Kart Racing Club is proud to announce that they have secured two major sponsors for the inaugural North of 49 Karting Championships. The Gentlemen Pros and Highlander Wine & Spirits have come on board and will provide financial support for the event. We want to send out a big thank you to these two companies for stepping up and supporting local kart racing.

The Gentlemen Pros

The Gentlemen Pros are an Alberta based company with locations in Calgary, Red Deer and Edmonton.

Our pros specialize in residential electrical, plumbing and HVAC installation, upgrades and repair, which means that the job will be done right the first time, every time.

Our team of Electrical, Plumbing and Furnace pros provide unmatched customer service and each member takes pride on being knowledgeable and skilled in their profession. Our commitment to safety and fair prices makes us the perfect choice for your any home project.

“The Gentlemen Plumbers are one of the top plumbing companies in Canada, serving the city of Calgary and the southern half of Alberta. We pride ourselves on being one of the only residential plumbing companies that subjects our technicians to mandatory criminal backgrounds and drug-testing.

Friendly, courteous and helpful…just like a Gentleman should be.”

Highlander Wine & Spirits

Highlander Wine & Spirits has been proudly serving Calgarians as a purveyor of wine, spirits, and beer for over five decades.

We’re definitely not just another liquor store in Calgary! With no less than eight sommeliers on staff, as well as decades of experience, we are industry leaders in all aspects of wine and spirits retailing.

Originally a popular off-sale in the old Highlander Hotel, our history dates back to when the hotel opened in 1961. The first Highlander Wine & Spirits store opened in 1996 and continues to serve the community 25 years later. From our humble beginnings at the hotel, to our online presence, follow us on this journey and history up until now. We have seven locations in Calgary, one in Airdrie and one at the West Edmonton Mall. We love wine, and we love to share our passion for wine with you.

Volunteer Race Officials
It takes a lot of people to put on an event on; my favorite is being a track-side Corner Marshal. The best way to watch a race is to be in the kart. The second-best way to watch is to be a trackside marshal. If you are interested in racing but not sure about it yourself, being a marshal might be for you. Marshals are there for emergencies and to communicate with racers with flags and to communicate regarding the race with others via radio. Training is provided by an extremely experienced Race Director Fred Causer & experienced Marshals.

For more information volunteering a full compliment of staff required… all positions are open and anyone wanting to volunteer can contact manager@ckrc.com Or the new VP Operations Vp.operations@ckrc.com
