Westerner Park
As a not-for-profit organization, so much of what we do relies upon the hard work and generosity of our volunteers.
Whether it's our Board of Directors, volunteer committees, or the people on the ground making each event happen, we wouldn't be anywhere without them. Westerner Park volunteers come from a variety of ages and backgrounds, and some have been with us for over thirty years! It takes over 200 volunteers working on approximately 21 committees to plan and organize Westerner Park produced events, so an extra set of hands is always welcome.
Volunteer opportunities at Westerner Park include becoming a board member, shareholder, committee volunteer or event volunteer.
Christmas Artisan Market
The Westerner Park Christmas Artisan Market is about giving back to the community with food and charity donations, while shopping for your Christmas list with unique local vendors that range from creative art, food and electronic devices. Experience the VIP night on Friday with free swag, drink and food samples while picking out the perfect gift. Saturday bring your skates and helmet to enjoy public skating with a $2 donation for the Red Deer Food Bank.
With This Ring...Bridal Gala
On Sunday, January 27, 2019 the Spring Gala will take place in both the Parkland and Prairie Pavilions at Westerner Park! Brides and their guests will have the entire day to visit a wide variety of exhibitors and attend either the morning or afternoon fashion shows. Central Alberta's largest spring bridal show!
A Heartfelt THANK YOU!
