Community Involvement



Altitude Sports & Entertainment is a proud partner in the local and regional communities we serve. Altitude is involved with a number of local charities, many of which are listed below.

In addition, Altitude also supports our troops, both at war and at home. Altitude's CEO and President, Jim Martin, has made several visits to troops in different areas of Iraq.  While there, Altitude has filmed the series "Talking with Heroes" and On the Front Line". Mr. Martin has also sponsored fun-spirited contests and delivered shirts, hats, pucks, and many other items to fans and supporters overseas. To view those photos, please click here or scroll below.
