Red Deer Minor Hockey Association (RDMH) will hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Tuesday, June 23, 2026at 6:30 PM at the Golden Circle. All members are encouraged to attend and participate in this important event, which includes the election of directors for the upcoming 2026-2027 hockey season.

Each family with at least one player registered for the 2026-2027 season is eligible to vote, with one vote permitted per family. A membership fee of $1.00 will be collected at the door for voting eligibility. The AGM provides a valuable opportunity for members to stay informed about the association’s direction, ask questions, and contribute to decision-making processes.

During the meeting, elections will be held to fill five (5) Board of Director positions, each with a three-year term. These positions are essential to the leadership and operation of RDMH, and we encourage interested members to consider standing for election.

Any member who wishes to run for a position on the RDMH Board of Directors must complete and submit a nomination package by Friday, June 5, 2026 at noon (Nomination package can be found on our website under the AGM tab).
