AKA The brains behind the operation
My passion for healthy living started in 1992. I was sick with depression my whole life, and in 1992, I started turning my life around. I had two young girls, and I finally felt good for the first time. I learned that with the vitamins you should be drinking good water. We researched tap water, and learned about all the prescription drugs, herbicides, pesticides, and other chemicals in it and decided to start giving pure water away. Much to my surprise, the healthy water took off!! My talented husband built a filling station in our half duplex, and we got our first outlet in 1993. In 1994 we moved to our first store, and we quickly outgrew that and moved to our next location in 1996. In 1999 the City let us know that Allowance Avenue was going to be built over top of our store. Since a road was going to be on top of our building, they would have to demolish it. SO once again we were on the hunt for a new location. We found this great place, which is now our current location. We spent a year renovating, and on June 10th, 2000 we had our grand opening!! The store seamed HUGE. We have since found ways to fill it up! We now carry a plethora of products that help your well-being and hold up to our high standards!
Icy Mountain Water started with me wanting to help people feel their best, and I feel so lucky that I can continue to do that every day! Helping people be happy, feel good, smile and laugh has always been my passion! I think life is worth living to the fullest every day, and feeling good helps you do that. Thank you Medicine Hat for so many years of love and support!
