Westerner Park’s Canadian Finals Rodeo will go on with the Restriction Exemption Program in place. Those who attend the event will either need to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test result. However, the park will also be offering Rapid Antigen Testing. 

“We are pleased to have Precede Occupational Health Services as our trusted provider, to ensure people have the option to provide a negative test to attend CFR” stated Mike Olesen, Chief Executive Officer, Westerner Park. “We hope that having this service onsite will help to make the process easier for people to come to the rodeo.” 

Precede Occupational Health Services CEO, Kevin Balaneski, concurs, adding “The Rapid Antigen Test will qualify not only for entry into the CFR, but is effective for 72 hours, allowing the individual to take in all of the other experiences in Red Deer such as shopping and restaurants.”
