The Red Deer Royals have proudly represented our community across Canada and around the world for many years, and today, we need your help to continue doing so at our best. Our uniforms have been a key part of that representation, but after nearly two decades of travel and performances, they are showing signs of wear.
First introduced in 2005, these uniforms have served us well,
but their time has come to be replaced.
Our campaign goal is to raise $120,000 to fund these much-needed uniforms. You can choose to support the campaign by
"adopting" specific items:
Tunic – $475 | Bibbers – $210 | Shako – $150 | Plume – $50 |
Complete Uniform – $885
Donations of $25 or more are eligible for a charitable tax receipt. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to our goal of outfitting the next generation of Royals with the uniforms they deserve. Thank you for your continued support of the Red Deer Royals!

Adopt - a - Royal Program
The Board of the Red Deer Community Band Society endeavours to maintain a fair and equitable fee structure. There are individual situations where the financial burden of fees, uniforms, camps and tours can be substantial. It is important to The Society that membership be available to all demographics of the community.
