Grounded by Deep Roots
A Salute to the Calgary Stampede Volunteers
This fountain was built as a tribute to the dedicated volunteers of the Calgary Exhibition & Stampede. It is their tireless work through numerous committees and their community spirit that enables us to maintain the many programs of the Stampede; including those devoted to youth and to the preservation of our western heritage. These programs are an integral part of the Stampede commitment to the citizens of Calgary and Southern Alberta.
The fountain was unveiled in 1995. The four bas relief murals (sculpted brick?) are by artist James Marshall. It is located near the east (front) side of the Big Four building.
