This year's event was the 20th anniversary and the first one in person in over 3 years! The committee has updated the name of the event to Grow Kids - Strong Confident Beautiful (formerly know as Red Deer Go Girl) to be more inclusive of all the students who attend the event. The long standing support of this event is from the tremendous support of of long term committee members including support from both of the local Red Deer school districts. As this event is open to all Grade 5 girls in the region, the support from the school districts is vital to the event's success.
