Woody’s Spray Park opening this weekend
The community is invited to a Family Fun Day to commemorate the opening of Woody’s Spray Park at the G.H. Dawe Community Centre. The free family event is being held on Saturday, July 8 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The day will be filled with games and activities for all ages, and of course, play time in the new spray park. The first 450 people to arrive will receive a free water bottle. To avoid parking, attendees are invited to ride City of Red Deer Transit free until 4 p.m. on routes #2 and #4 to the G.H. Dawe Community Centre.
Woody’s Spray Park features picnic tables, green spaces, on-site washrooms and two outdoor showers. A perimeter fence has been installed to keep spray park patrons safe for everyone to enjoy. While the event is until 4 p.m. on Saturday, the spray park is open until 7 p.m.
Woody’s Spray Park is open until the September long weekend, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily (weather permitting).

Plan Ahead: Voting May Take a Little Longer This Election Day
News release from the City of Red Deer
Voters are encouraged to plan their vote and allow a little extra time at the polls this Election Day, Monday, October 20.
Because this year’s election uses Alberta’s new Permanent Elector Registry, voting may take slightly longer than in previous years. Municipalities are required to provide updated voter information back to the province after the election. As a result, many voters will be asked to complete an Elector Register Form (Form 13) at the voting station — even if they are already registered to vote. This ensures that voter information is accurate and up to date. Once the registry information has been updated, all forms are securely shredded.
Additionally, the Permanent Elector Registry is not shared with local school boards, so anyone voting for a School Board Trustee must also complete an Elector Register Form (Form 13).
We appreciate voters’ patience as our election teams work to ensure every eligible voter can cast their ballot accurately and securely. Once the voting process begins, most voters complete their vote in about 10 minutes.
To help avoid lineups, voters can visit Red Deer Elections website to check real-time wait times at each voting station and choose the location with the shortest line.
Anyone who arrives at a polling station and joins a line before 8 p.m. will be able to vote.
Thank you for your understanding and for taking the time to make your voice heard in Red Deer’s 2025 Municipal and School Board Election.
