Power. Passion. Precision. Craftsmanship. Camaraderie. Competition!
These six words represent the thrill, excitement and spirit of WorldSkills International.
Every two years, hundreds of the best young professionals from trades, service and technical programs around the world gather to showcase their talents and abilities. This thrilling, high-performance, four day WorldSkills Competition is the biggest event of its kind in the world.
"I am very pleased to partner with WorldSkills Calgary 2009," remarked Holmes. "If you're going to do something, do it right the first time. My motto is 'Make it Right™,' which matches very nicely with the mission and values of WorldSkills Calgary 2009."
The Calgary Stampede chose Mike Holmes to lead the Stampede Parade on behalf of WorldSkills Calgary 2009. He took his role as Parade Marshal to a new level, perpetrating a global skills movement that will continue at the WorldSkills Competition in Calgary September 1-7.
In his role as Honorary Spokesperson for WorldSkills Calgary 2009, Holmes will appear in television public service announcements and print promotional materials, as well as attend the Competition.
