Elbow park Residents Association (epra)

Connection - Community - Commitment

The Elbow Park Residents Association (EPRA), is the oldest community association in Calgary. We are fast approaching our 100 years milestone. This is only possible because of the generous contribution of you, our residents.

We lease and operate the clubhouse and park from the City of Calgary. We control how those resources are used in the community. BUT it also means we are responsible for all the associated costs; we pay the bills to cut the grass, flood the rinks, maintain the Clubhouse etc. Your contribution is vital.

EPRA relies on you through membership fees, donations, fundraising, Casino, sponsorships and importantly volunteer hours to operate and provide services for the community. The EPRA is governed by a volunteer Board that is elected annually at the AGM. Volunteers contributed over 5,700 hours last year.

Please consider getting involved. Become a member, volunteering your time or donating to help build and support our resident association the EPRA.
