KEN HURRICANE HIMES - RESUME




Over the past two decades, I, Ken 'Hurricane' Himes have represented over 4000 athletes, 300 companies and 20 charities in this region alone. My portfolio continues to grow appreciably with every event.

The 'Hurricane' has been considered by two of the top NHL sound technicians to have one of strongest and eclectic voices in sports entertainment today. World class Olympians, CFL, NFL and numerous other professional and amateur stars, declare the 'Hurricane' as the best public address announcer in the country.

Whenever you need to boost your product, energize the players or entertain the crowds, very few can match the energy of the 'Hurricane'. It's like having an extra player on the field, ice, and floor etc. When the tremendous cheerleading efforts of the 'Hurricane' and his voice get behind your team EVERYONE WINS! Hurricane Himes's schedule is very busy throughout the year so book now to experience this energy.
