Red Deerians will have some access to free extra tags for their garbage bags this Christmas Season.
Currently, Red Deer has a three bag limit of garbage per week for each household, with the City now providing four extra tags to put out with your waste over the next several weeks.
Tags for the Holiday Season usually cost a dollar, however, until January 15th, the four tags you may require will be free and can be picked up at recreation facilities and City Hall.
In a release, Janet Whitesell, Waste Management Superintendent says, “We know holiday celebrations can create more household waste than usual,” she also adds, “I would like to remind residents of the many simple things they can do to reduce the amount of waste they generate during the holidays, like using reusable gift bags and ensuring that numbered plastics are recycled in the blue boxes. And, as an extra bit of help for those residents who still find themselves over the waste limit, we’re offering the free extra waste tags.”

The highly anticipated draw took place at 10:00 a.m. Thursday at the Red Deer Regional Health Foundation office, located within the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre, with an announcement following live on Facebook, allowing participants and supporters to join in the excitement virtually.
“We are delighted to congratulate the winners of this year’s Red Deer Hospital Lottery,” said Manon Therriault, Chief Executive Officer of the Red Deer Regional Health Foundation. “The funds raised from this lottery will significantly contribute to enhancing patient care and services at the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated and supported this important cause.”
Proceeds from the Red Deer Hospital Lottery and Mega Bucks 50 will contribute to acquiring critically needed, state-of-the-art equipment for several units at the Red Deer Hospital.
This year’s lottery will fund equipment such as a phototherapy system, which allows parents to hold and soothe their infant while undergoing phototherapy, a cardiology case cart to monitor cardiac rhythms during stress testing, and other equipment to help provide excellent care for patients in the emergency and operating rooms at the Red Deer Hospital.
The winners of a variety of electronics were also drawn today. A full list of winners will be available in the coming days on the official lottery website at reddeerhospitallottery.ca. Prize winners who have not already been notified will receive a letter in the mail with instructions on how to claim their prizes.
