Invest in your neighborhood and become a part of Edgemont’s vibrant community by joining the Edgemont Community Association (ECA). Your membership will help fund community building programs and activities, support under-served residents, and enable the continued existence of our community hub.
As a member, you will be the first to hear about a wide range of activities and programs, such as community events like seasonal markets and celebrations. You’ll also benefit from discounts at local businesses and the chance to participate in exclusive community initiatives like gardening projects and family fun days
Why you should become a member:
- Protect your investment: For many families, their home is their biggest investment. The ECA contributes to increasing property values by ensuring the upkeep of shared spaces and enforcing standards that preserve the attractiveness of the neighbourhood. Investing in a membership helps the ECA continue to make Edgemont one of the top communities in Calgary to call home.
- Be heard: You have a say in community decisions and can participate in discussions that affect your neighbourhood. The ECA is an avenue for input to the city to influence what our community looks like regarding schools, enhanced landscaping, cell towers, and more.
