As part of a multi-year sponsorship, Kiewit will become the official helmet decal sponsor of the Avalanche home, away and alternate uniforms appearing during all practices and games. Kiewit will appear prominently at Ball Arena and the Colorado Avalanche practice facility. The partnership extends the Kiewit brand, demonstrates the company's commitment to the Rocky Mountain Region, and will help it attract and retain the best engineering and construction personnel. It is a great fit for Kiewit and its deep commitment to safety and supporting mental health awareness - what's "under the hat" - in the construction industry and beyond.
"Kiewit is excited to be the Official Construction and Engineering Sponsor of the Avalanche, an organization - like our company - committed to excellence, teamwork and making a positive impact in our communities," said David Miles, executive vice president, Kiewit Corporation. "It's exciting to have our brand displayed on Avalanche helmets, much like the Kiewit name on our people's hard hats and protective equipment that help keep them safe on the job - because nothing is more important. Our company looks forward to supporting this elite hockey organization and making the most of this strategic partnership in Colorado and across North America."
"We are proud to announce Kiewit as the new helmet sponsor of the Colorado Avalanche," said Michael Ceilley, SVP of partnership marketing & media sales for Kroenke Sports & Entertainment. "Kiewit is renowned within the construction and engineering industries for building innovative projects and communities, including their new regional headquarters here in Denver. The Kiewit core values of people, integrity, excellence, and stewardship, align with the attributes of our talented Colorado Avalanche hockey club, and their continuous pursuit of excellence on and off the ice. We look forward to furthering this community and Colorado-based sponsorship for many years to come."
Throughout the life of the sponsorship, Kiewit and the Colorado Avalanche will develop and implement fan-facing marketing and community programs that celebrate hockey and support the local Colorado community.
