Ride the Dream

Give a child the chance to experience something unforgettable.

Central Alberta Dream Drive pairs children with passionate drivers for a once-in-a-lifetime ride in their dream car—creating moments of joy, confidence, and possibility.

Register a co-pilot

At the heart of Central Alberta Dream Drive are our co-pilots—children who are invited to take part in an unforgettable experience.

Each co-pilot is paired with a driver and rides passenger in a dream car as part of our rally through the city.

For many, it’s more than just a ride—it’s a moment where they feel celebrated, confident, and part of something bigger.

  • We welcome applications for children and youth age 6+ who would truly benefit from this experience.

    Our focus is on those who have faced challenges—whether medical, physical, emotional, or personal—and would gain something meaningful from being part of the event.

    While we wish we could include everyone, space is limited based on the number of participating vehicles. Not all applicants may be selected, but every application is deeply appreciated and carefully considered.

  • Selected co-pilots will:

    • Be paired with a driver and their vehicle

    • Enjoy a pre-rally lunch with your fellow co-pilots and drivers

    • Take part in the rally through Red Deer

    Safety and comfort are our top priorities, and all event logistics will be shared with families in advance.
