Typically reserved for seniors turning 65 years or older, and couples celebrating an anniversary of 50 years or more, the Office of the Mayor is now also accepting requests for birthday letters for children.

Are you the parent of a child or teenager who is passionate about community and loves to show off their civic pride? Make their birthday more memorable with a personalized letter from Mayor Tara Veer on behalf of city council.

“As we work our way through the COVID-19 pandemic as a community, we want to help brighten the days of as many of our residents as we can, especially those children and seniors who are unable to have the birthday or anniversary gathering with friends and family they were hoping for,” says Mayor Veer.

To request a personalized letter for a Red Deerian celebrating a birthday (under 18 or 65 years plus) or anniversary (50 years or above), visit www.reddeer.ca/mayor and click on “Birthday or Anniversary message.”
