Announcing The Connecting Westman Tour Loge Box

Westman Communications Group (WCG) is excited to announce the next step in its efforts to connect Westman: The Connecting Westman Tour Loge Box. In partnership with the Keystone Centre, WCG will provide access to the newest way of experiencing events, such as the upcoming Brandon Wheat Kings season. The Connecting Westman Tour is an annual community-driven initiative that serves WCG-connected communities and the projects that matter most to local residents. During the summer, the Tour provides fundraising events through charity barbecues. The winter continuation of the Tour will be used to provide Westman residents with opportunities to attend events such as Wheat Kings hockey games in one of the newly installed loge boxes. The Connecting Westman Tour Loge Box is a specially designed space to enhance connection as attendees share in experiences. The loge boxes are semi-enclosed seating areas located around the upper concourse of the Westoba Place, installed in the summer of 2024. In partnership with the Keystone Centre, the Connecting Westman Tour Loge Box will help support local events held in the arena. “WCG is proud to continue its longstanding commitment to the Keystone Centre,” said WCG Senior Director Derek Radics. “The Connecting Westman Loge Box is a great addition to the Tour and will be a new way for people to view the Brandon Wheat Kings hockey games.” WCG will distribute tickets through social media giveaways or donate tickets to deserving causes.
