The opening of the Collicutt Centre’s new water slide was celebrated Saturday, October 5. The Water Slide Party featured fun games, activities, prizes and giveaways in the Water Park plus two water slides to enjoy.

Carter Hodder won a contest to be the first to ride the new water slide by sharing a story about his favourite memory at a City recreation facility or program. Carter’s memory was “doing a loop-d-loop in the tube slide at the Dawe with my dad! It was soooo fun (and a bit scary!)”.

Carter and his friend, Kenny, had a blast with the slide all to themselves before it officially opened to the public.

The Collicutt Centre Water Park, including the new slide, is open daily until 9 p.m. For more information on the facility, visit www.reddeer.ca/collicuttcentre.
