It’s Homecoming Week at Red Deer Polytechnic!

For our alumni, community partners, students, and anyone else who has ever been to our campus, we would like to invite you back – and for anyone who has never been to Red Deer Polytechnic, there’s no time like this week! We have 10 fabulous Homecoming events scheduled over three days, and we feel that means there is something for everyone. If none of the events seem interesting, come on over and take a self-guided tour through our campus and through the picturesque walking trails on our grounds.

We hope to see you at RDP this week for Homecoming!

This year, we are especially excited to welcome two new Homecoming Affiliate Events – events planned by community partners, or in partnership with community partners, and hosted during Homecoming. We are excited to host our Affiliate Events, the Red Deer Energy Innovation Fair, and the Red Deer Symphony Orchestra’s Oktoberfest.

When you purchase tickets for Red Deer Hospital Lottery and Mega Bucks 50, you do more than just play—you become part of something bigger. You help bridge the gap between what government funding provides and what your hospital truly needs to deliver exceptional care.

Your support helps fund state-of-the-art equipment that doctors and nurses need right now to care for patients across Central Alberta. While plans for the hospital expansion move forward, healthcare doesn’t wait. Patients in our community need access to life-saving technology today, and your generosity makes that possible.

This year’s lottery will fund essential new and replacement equipment, ensuring your hospital can continue to serve the 500,000 people who rely on it. When you purchase your ticket, you’re investing in innovation, excellence, and a healthier future for Central Alberta.
