We volunteer because we LOVE Parkhill
From community clean ups, to Christmas parties – we are volunteer powered. Strong Community Associations lead to robust communities, which in turn enhance overall life satisfaction and elevate land value. We are always in need of more assistance. If you are interested in supporting the organization by donating your time as a director or volunteering for an event, please reach out to us.
About the Name and Logo Change
At the 2024 AGM, the membership approved a proposal to change our bylaws from “Parkhill Stanley Park” to simply “Parkhill”. This change:
- Aligns our name with how the City of Calgary refers to us, as shown on the City community map: https://www.calgary.ca/council/wardboundarymap.html
- Ensures consistency with how neighboring communities identify us, as they commonly refer to us as “Parkhill”
- Result in a more concise name
