NORTHRIDGE, Calif., July 1 /PRNewswire/ -- On April 15, 2009, the Public Works
and Government Services Canada along with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police
awarded Contemporary Security Canada the contract to provide security
screening services for the upcoming 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games
in Vancouver and Whistler, British Columbia. Damon Zumwalt, Founder, Chairman
and CEO of Contemporary Services Corporation (CSC) has launched Contemporary
Security Canada (also identified as CSC) specifically to provide services in
Vancouver and Whistler, British Columbia, where it will be responsible for a
security workforce of approximately 5000 licensed and trained security staff
and will operate throughout all the Olympic and Paralympic venues. The
contract award includes a provision of scaling costs according to hours
required operationally and provides a maximum of $97.419 million (CAD) to
execute the program. 

Mr. Zumwalt established Contemporary Security Canada in partnership with
Stephen V. Mirabile, who will oversee the project and client relations with
the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the Public Works and Government
Services Canada. Additionally, Mr. Mirabile will manage the relationship with
"CSC's" local Canadian partners, United Protection Security Group based in
Alberta, and Aeroguard based in Ontario.  Mr. Mirabile, who is also the
President and Chief Operating Officer for Contemporary International, a sister
company of CSC, states that "with over 42 years of experience, we will
certainly need to draw on the resources and talent of CSC North America; after
all, they provide similar services for over 7,000 events annually across North
America."

Mr. Zumwalt, who founded Contemporary Services Corporation almost 42 years
ago, has essentially developed many of the standards and practices used
throughout the event security industry today. Evolving from its concert
security beginnings into a full-spectrum crowd management firm, Contemporary
Services Corporation and its sister companies provide a holistic approach to
the event security industry and provide services to an esteemed group of
clientele, including more than 100 stadiums and arenas, over 75 universities,
more than 20 convention centers, and numerous clients in the MLB, MLS, NBA,
NFL, NHL, and NASCAR. Mr. Zumwalt and his team are "very excited about
extending the Contemporary Services brand of performance and expertise into
the Canadian market and are extremely honored to provide customized crowd
management and security services for the most prestigious event in the world."
