Cold Lake has announced its sponsorship of Extreme Mudfest as the Official Stage Sponsor for the upcoming event scheduled for this August.
Following a compelling presentation to the council earlier this month, which included insightful statistics from previous year’s events, the council unanimously decided to support the festival by becoming the Official Stage Sponsors, contributing a substantial amount of $20,000.
Mayor Craig Copeland expressed enthusiasm about Cold Lake’s involvement, highlighting the event’s significant influx of visitors to the city throughout the week. “Extreme Mudfest brings a lot of people to the city throughout that whole week. It’s a great event, full of mud and music, and we’re happy to be a driving force in bringing it back to our community this year.”
The funding for this sponsorship comes from the Community Recreation, Art, Culture, and Heritage Investment Grant, which received unanimous approval during the April 23 meeting. This demonstrates the council’s commitment to supporting vibrant community events.
