SUMMARY:The Christmas Pickle
DESCRIPTION:A pickle used as a Christmas decoration may seem odd at first\, but it’s an old tradition. When decorating the tree\, the pickle is hung last\, hidden among the branches. The first person on Christmas morning to find the Christmas Pickle receives a special blessing for the year and an extra gift!  \nAs part of North Pole Stroll\, many Downtown Red Deer businesses place pickles in their stores. Customers lucky enough to spot them are eligible to win a prize from that business\, such as a discount or raffle entries

SUMMARY:Bull Skit - Get White Trashed
DESCRIPTION:A drinking game. A dumpster fire. A damn good time. \nEver wonder what happens when everyday problems meet over-the-top redneck logic? Welcome to Get White Trashed\, an improvised show where things spiral out of control faster than a lawnmower race in a Walmart parking lot. \nEach night\, our crew of beer-fueled improvisers take a run-of-the-mill situation and turn it into a full-blown trailer park catastrophe. As the chaos unfolds onstage\, the audience drinks along with their own set of rules\, making Get White Trashed not just a show\, but a full-throttle party. \nSo grab a case of PBR\, comb that mullet\, tuck your tank top into your finest sweatpants\, and prepare to get loud\, rowdy\, and hilariously white trashed. \nThis is Get White Trashed—where the only thing more unpredictable than the comedy… is the hangover.
