Alternative option for food and beverage service at Rebels games

Jan 14, 2022 | 12:06 PM

CLARIFICATION: A previous version of this story stated that Westerner Park was granted an “exemption.” To clarify, it is not an exemption to eat and drink in your seat, but rather an alternative option which allows fans to do so in the designated area, as described in the story below.

The Red Deer Rebels have announced that Westerner Park has been granted a modified food and beverage serving option for home games, starting Friday night.

The Rebels face the Brandon Wheat Kings tonight with puck drop at 7 p.m.

The available menu will be as pictured below:

It was about a week before Christmas when the provincial government announced that all large-scale events would not only have to cut capacity, but wouldn’t be able to serve food and beverage.

“During the game and intermission, fans can enter the Parkland Pavilion behind Section W, where canned beer/ciders/seltzers/soda, along with burgers, ice cream sandwiches, brisket sandwiches, and other items will be available,” says Merrick Sutter, Rebels Sr. Vice President.

“Seating is provided for 500 fans, via tables of 10. As per regulations, food and beverage must only be consumed while seated. The space will be open post-game as well, with alcohol sales ending at 10 p.m. We are thankful for Westerner Park’s efforts in working with AHS to provide this opportunity. We anticipate this service being available until the restriction has been lifted.”

The Rebels also remind fans that this past Wednesday’s home game against the Prince Albert Raiders has been rescheduled to Monday. Jan. 17 at 7 p.m.

Other rescheduled games include: Jan. 7 vs. Edmonton is now Feb. 22, and Jan. 8 vs. Lethbridge will be played on Mar. 28.

Tonight’s game broadcast can be heard live on 106.7 REWIND Radio starting at 6:30.
