Community
Support Helps Halifax Play Hard!
HALIFAX, March 29, 2006 — With the Juno
Awards set to rock Halifax this weekend, Nova Scotia is poised
to bask in the international spotlight, as entertainers like Pamela
Anderson, Coldplay, Nickelback, Black Eyed Peas and Bryan Adams
make their way to the Halifax Metro Centre for Sunday night's
gala awards show broadcast on CTV.
But
setting the stage for an event of this magnitude has been a collaborative
effort, and host committee Halifax Play Hard is acknowledging
the support of the community, and the dedication of many sponsors
for their help in transforming months of planning in to reality.
Event
manager Andree Gracie said the goal of Halifax Play Hard and its
various event sponsors has always been the same. "We all
share the belief that our region is one that can entertain world
class events such as the 2006 JUNO Awards. Once again the corporate
community has proven its dedication and we would like to say thank
you to all of our sponsors for enabling us to showcase Halifax
through our exciting Play Hard celebration of pageantry, music
and hospitality."
