Thank you all for joining us last August at the 2022 EMRB Golf Tournament. We couldn’t have asked for a better day to get together with our regional partners and support a great cause – the Leduc & District Food Bank.

Impact across the Region
With Devon being the west anchor of the North Saskatchewan River Valley and home to a vast trail system, Mayor Craddock is a strong advocate of recreation corridors. This speaks to the importance of integrated planning that fosters a high quality of life. By mapping out open spaces and identifying natural assets, the Region has opportunities to promote tourism and recreation for the benefit of all.
Mayor Craddock is also an energetic voice in highlighting the important R&D work happening at home and across the Region. Through regional assets like the Devon Research Centre and firms like CanmetENERGY, the Region is at the forefront of new technologies and innovative solutions that extract valuable hydrocarbon resources and reduce the environmental impacts of resource development.
Mayor Craddock actively participates with regional neighbours and partners in Edmonton Global, Edmonton Regional Airports Authority, River Valley Alliance and the Collaborative Economic Development initiative.
