It was a good win for the Red Deer Rebels in Medicine Hat on Wednesday night, doubling the first place Tigers 4-2 in their own arena.

Red Deer’s Josh Mahura opened the scoring at the 17:28 mark of the first period to put the visitors up 1-0 but Medicine Hat tied it up at 1-1 just before the period came to an end when Steven Owre scored with 31 seconds left to play.

The second period’s only goal came from the Rebels Evan Polei when he scored at the 17:51 mark to put Red Deer up 2-1 after forty minutes.

In the third period, Medicine Hat’s Ryan Jevne scored for the Tigers at the 6:58 mark to tie it up at 2-2 but Red Deer’s Adam Musil then scored the eventual game winner less than two minutes later and an insurance goal after that to make it a 4-1 final in favour of the Rebels on this night.

The win improves the Rebels record to 15-12-2-2 with 34 points and tied for second place in the WHL’s Central Division with the Lethbridge Hurricanes. The Tigers still lead the Division with 43 points.

Red Deer’s next game is Friday, December 9th at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary against the 10-14-2-0 Hitmen who have 22 points and are fifth place in the Central Division.

Limited access to G.H. Dawe Community Centre this summer due to construction

Due to construction, access to the G.H. Dawe Community Centre will be limited this summer, with a full closure planned for August.

As announced yesterday, City recreation centres are opening fully to the public as of July 1. With construction underway at the G.H. Dawe Community Centre, only limited services and areas will be available.

Here’s what you need to know:

Starting July 2, fitness and gym areas will open from 10 a.m. – 8 p.m., daily. In July, summer day camps that normally operate from the Dawe will operate from other facilities.
The pool will remain closed until September.
To accommodate interior heating and ventilation construction, the facility will fully close from July 26 to August 31. Some registered preschool and summer camp programming may proceed, but no rental or general admission options will be available.
On September 1, we anticipate the pool will be open, but some other amenities, like the gym, may not be available. More information will be provided as construction progresses.
Playing surfaces in the arena will not be available until construction is complete, which is expected to be early 2023.

We are currently offering a discounted monthly Value Pass for $27 for adults ($24.50 for seniors; $21.90 for students; $19.30 for youth; $14.20 for children, and $60.50 for a family. It provides unlimited access to all facilities. As of August the Value Pass will only provide access to the Recreation Centre and Michener Aquatic Centre; however, access to the Dawe will be included in the Value pass until the pool, gym and fitness areas are open.

About the G.H. Dawe Community Centre Project

Work is underway now on the G.H. Dawe Community Centre Project and some exciting changes are in store. We expect to welcome visitors to the transformed space in early 2023. Here’s just some of what you can expect:

Two NHL standard playing surfaces
Expanded fitness areas, including a running track
Outdoor spray park with washroom facilities
Improved accessibility
Additional north entrance + site access from 67 Street
Additional parking

During construction, there will be some changes and impacts to existing amenities and programs, and we’ll do you best to share this information in advance. Thanks for your patience as we complete this work.
