Do you know an individual, group or team from Red Deer whose actions have brought honour and recognition to the community? Then City officials would like to hear from you! Nominations for the annual Mayor’s Recognition Awards are now being accepted until February 28th at 9:00 am.

The Mayor’s Recognition Awards are a way to recognize those deserving to be recognized for their outstanding contributions to our community. There are five award categories that recognize individuals, groups and teams from Red Deer whose actions strengthen and contribute to the overall well-being of our city:

Athletics
Distinguished Voluntary Service
Fine & Performing Arts
Community Builder Award
Mayor’s Special Award

The Mayor’s Recognition Awards Committee selects the award recipients with the exception of the Mayor’s Special Award recipient, who is chosen by the Mayor herself. The Mayor’s Recognition Awards are presented at a ceremony in June.

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.
