“On behalf of Red Deer City Council and the City of Red Deer, we are honoured for Red Deer to be selected as an official stop on the 2019/2020 Rogers Hometown Hockey Tour.

Like many communities across Alberta, we are facing economic and safety challenges, but this is an opportunity for us to come together to build community life through celebration with our friends, family and neighbours, and to build on the momentum we have as a sport tourism destination.

Red Deerians, as we once again welcome our fellow Canadians to Red Deer, we look forward to celebrating with all of you November 30 and December 1.”

Red Deer Regional Health Foundation

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.
