E.B. Horsman & Son Joins The Enbridge Tour Alberta for Cancer: A Weekend of Hope and Resilience

Tour Alberta for Cancer

This past weekend, the team at E.B. Horsman & Son took part in an extraordinary event that not only challenged us physically but also brought us together for a cause that’s close to our hearts. We are proud to have participated in The Enbridge Tour Alberta for Cancer, a two-day cycling event dedicated to raising funds and awareness for cancer research and patient care.

A Ride with a Purpose

The Enbridge Tour Alberta for Cancer is more than just a cycling event; it’s a movement aimed at making a difference in the fight against cancer. Riders from across the province gathered to embark on this journey, united by a shared commitment to supporting those affected by cancer and advancing research that brings us closer to a cure. For us at E.B. Horsman & Son, participating in this event was a powerful way to demonstrate our dedication to community and philanthropy.

Our Team’s Journey

Our team of enthusiastic riders, comprising employees, family members, and friends, trained rigorously in the months leading up to the tour. The event kicked off early Saturday morning with an air of excitement and determination. Over the course of two days, we rode through picturesque landscapes, faced challenging terrains, and experienced moments of both triumph and camaraderie.

Each mile we pedaled was a reminder of why we ride: to honor loved ones lost to cancer, to support those currently battling the disease, and to contribute to the vital research that holds the promise of a cancer-free future. The support we received along the route—from cheering crowds to fellow riders—was incredibly inspiring and fueled our determination to push through.

Making an Impact

Our participation in The Enbridge Tour Alberta for Cancer was not just about the ride itself but also about the impact we could make. Through the generous contributions of our sponsors, donors, and supporters, we were able to raise a significant amount of money for cancer research and patient care. Every dollar raised brings us one step closer to breakthroughs in treatment and ultimately, a cure.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who supported our team—whether through donations, words of encouragement, or joining us on this journey. Your contributions have made a tangible difference in the fight against cancer and have helped us achieve our fundraising goals.

Adam Dries, Alberta District Manager said “I ride for my family, whose strength and courage in the face of cancer inspire me every day. At the Tour Alberta Ride for Cancer, every pedal stroke is a tribute to them and a step closer to a cure.”

The Ride Means so Much to Us All

Kyle Gilmour, our Account Manager in Alberta, pictured here sharing his victory and ride with his kids. “This was my fourth year riding with team EBH, each of which have been challenging experiences. It has been great to see the team grow in size over the years and seeing the increased donations. It is always an emotional ride and a good time for reflection. I look forward to building on this tradition again next year”, Kyle said.

Hooked on Memories: Sturgeon Excursion 2024 Fishing Trip

 

Imagine the sun rising over the Fraser River, casting a golden glow on the water. The anticipation was palpable as our team, customers, and supplier partners, Southwire and Cascadia, gathered on the fishing boats. We’re not just fishing; we’re creating memories that will ripple through our professional lives.

Nothing says “thank you” like a day on the water. Our team, customers and our suppliers, Southwire and Cascadia, won’t forget this unique experience anytime soon. The shared laughter and the stories of the catch will be told for years. Each sturgeon caught was a victory, celebrated with high-fives and smiles as the sun glistened across the water.

The One That Got Away: Ah, the legendary sturgeon that slipped the hook! We laughed, blamed the line, and vowed to conquer it next time.

More Than Just Fishing

Sturgeon fishing isn’t just about catching fish; it’s about forging connections. Our staff, customers, and supplier partners left with more than memories—they left with bonds that strengthen our professional network. This trip was a powerful reminder that sometimes the best way to build business relationships is through shared adventures outside the usual office setting.

Looking Ahead

Thank you to Southwire and Cascadia for organizing such a memorable event. This sturgeon fishing trip was more than just a day on the water; it was a celebration of our partnerships and a testament to the power of shared experiences.

Be sure to watch for the 3rd Annual Southwire 2025 Sturgeon Excursion next year—this could be you! Don’t miss out on the chance to create lasting memories and forge stronger business connections.

The more you purchase from an affiliated supplier, the more points you collect to earn free stuff. Check out how some of our customers used their E.B. Horsman Rewards!

Mike, a skilled contractor known for his careful work, has been buying Leviton products for years. With each purchase, he collected points in the E.B. Horsman Rewards program, aiming for something more than just stuff. As his points piled up, Mike wanted to bring his team closer together, recognizing their hard work. When he finally had enough points, he didn’t pick something for himself. Instead, he chose a company BBQ. With his new BBQ, Mike turned ordinary days into something special. Every month, he gathers his team in the yard behind their office to enjoy good food and each other’s company.

Alex, an electrician and frequent customer of RAB Products, had been diligently accumulating E.B. Horsman Reward points with each purchase of lighting solutions from RAB. As his son’s birthday neared, Alex saw an opportunity to use his points for something special. When the time came to redeem his points, Alex chose an iPad as the perfect gift for his son. The thought of the joy it would bring filled him with excitement. With his decision made, Alex looked forward to making his son’s birthday celebration truly memorable

Ava, a lighting specialist with a keen eye for illuminating spaces, has long been a customer of Signify. With each purchase, she collected points for the E.B. Horsman’s rewards program, but her intentions extended far beyond personal gain.

Ava wanted to make a difference in the lives of others. As her points amassed, she saw an opportunity to turn her purchases into something meaningful. When Ava finally reached the milestone of redeeming her points, she decided to spread light in a different way. She used her points to donate $300 to the BC Children’s Hospital. Through her generosity, Ava not only brightened spaces with her lighting expertise but also illuminated the lives of those in her community who needed it most.

Can Electrical Conduit Reduce Your Energy Bills?

As the unsung guardians of electrical safety, conduit are protective channels that house and safeguard your cables and wires. Not only are they a fundamental part of modern electrical applications, but they can even potentially reduce costly energy bills. Here’s how.

Conduit Can Make Your Building More Energy Efficient

Canada’s extreme weather conditions can test a building’s resilience, making energy efficiency crucial. By enclosing and insulating electrical cables and wires, conduit create a heat-retaining barrier within your wiring system and minimize heat loss. Over time, this can reduce your hefty energy bills by keeping energy consumption in check.

Conduit Prolong the Use of Your Cables and Wires

Tired of frayed cables and worn-out wires? Conduit extend the life of your building’s cables and wires by protecting them and keeping them in top-notch condition. Here’s how.

  • Shield cables and wires from the environment: Conduit protect electrical infrastructure from moisture, corrosion, temperature fluctuations, and physical damage. This allows cables and wires to remain robust and resilient, reducing the need for expensive replacements.
  • Guard against wear and tear: Secure and sturdy conduit protect against premature wear caused by movement and vibration. They also reduce the risk of power disruptions or electrical outages.
    • Pro-tip: if water is causing your electrical outages, try using Polywater’s products to create seals around conduits and pipes.
  • Future-proof for easy upgrades: Conduit allow for easy installation of additional cables or wires without disruptive renovations or extensive rewiring. You can keep infrastructure up to date with fewer headaches and smaller bills.
  • Make safety a priority: Conduit play a crucial role in ensuring safety. Enclosing electrical cables and wires reduces the risk of accidental contact or damage—safeguarding your building’s occupants and protecting valuable infrastructure.

Conduit Mitigate Heat Dissipation

Climate control is important year-round, especially during summer heat waves and winter cold spells. Excessive heat dissipation in a building can lead to higher energy bills, which you certainly don’t want any time of year! With proper conduit installation, you can:

  • Prevent heat from escaping cables and wires: Conduit create an insulated barrier, ensuring your building’s temperature remains balanced and reducing the need for air conditioning. Say goodbye to skyrocketing energy bills and hello to improved climate control.
  • Protect electrical infrastructure: Excessive heat takes a toll on electrical infrastructure, leading to reduced performance and potential damage. The protective shielding of conduit minimizes overheating and helps ensure your electrical system’s longevity. This reduces the risk of malfunctions, and helps avert costly repairs in the future. 

Whether you manage a commercial building, a residential complex, or an industrial facility, conduit offer versatile solutions to tackle heat dissipation and reduce those costly energy bills. 

From rigid steel conduit for robust protection to PVC conduit for cost-effective insulation, Albrite Lighting offers a wide range of options for new construction and retrofit projects.

Key Considerations for Conduit Installation

Ready to install your conduit? Here are a few pointers to review before you begin. 

  • Map out your electrical system: Before installing conduit, identify the areas where you need them, and plan out the most efficient routes for running them. Consider your building’s layout, the proximity of electrical equipment, and possible future expansions.
  • Choose the right gauge and capacity: Find out what your buildings’ power requirements are. Oversized conduit can lead to unnecessary material and installation costs, while undersized conduits may restrict future upgrades.
  • Pick the proper conduit: Choose materials that can withstand your local elements. Consider factors like durability, corrosion resistance, and location when making your selection. If you aren’t sure which to choose, get in touch.
  • Comply with building codes: Always conform to electrical codes and regulations in your area. Code compliance ensures the safety and reliability of your electrical system and helps you avoid potential legal penalties.
  • Customize for best results: With a variety of conduit materials and sizes available, choose conduit options that align squarely with your needs, budget, and aesthetics.
