On June 8th, the Tourism Industry celebrated the finalists and winner of this year’s Red Deer Experience Awards at an outdoor reception and luncheon at the Westerner Parks’s Harvest Gardens.
Red Deer Experience Awards program provides an opportunity for consumers as well as businesses to share a photo, video or story demonstrating outstanding service or a great tourism experience they have encountered in Red Deer and Red Deer County. Nominations are received online throughout the year. The nominations are then reviewed by a panel of judges who select the finalists and ultimate winner in each of the categories. Winners are selected honoring individual service and achievement as well as businesses that have demonstrated excellence in service and overall tourism experience.
