Stettler Automotive Dealers Nominated for Central Alberta Community Spirit Award Aspen Ford, Stettler Dodge, Stettler GM Collective community involvement and leadership as corporate citizens acknowledged Aspen Ford, Stettler Dodge and Stettler GM together have been nominated for the Central Alberta Community Spirit Award sponsored by Central Alberta Economic Partnership with the awards ceremonies this Thursday.
Tim Berry of Aspen Ford
“The Central Alberta Economic Partnership Community Spirit Award application process gave us an opportunity to acknowledge how our three dealers work collectively,” said Aubrey Brown, executive director of Stettler Regional Board of Trade and Community Development. “They consistently demonstrate a high level of community involvement at the local level.” “As soon as the application guidelines were released, I heard from Town of Stettler chief administrative officer Rob Stoutenberg who suggested we prepare the nomination of behalf of our local dealers.”
Kelly Hicks of Stettler Dodge
“Our dealers lead on so many local projects, the application could easily have been longer, but longer applications were not permitted.” The Town of Stettler — represented by Councillor Al Campbell — and the County of Stettler — represented by Councillor Joe Gendre — are full partners of CAEP and have been members since CAEP was established.
