Fundraising COMPLETED!
On March 16, 2020, we were notified from the Government of Alberta that the Community League was successful in our provincial grant application. We have fully fundraised the amount for this project and construction is planned for summer of 2020 (pending COVID-19 limitations).
We will continue to update this page as we move through the City of Edmonton process. Thank you to all that helped us reach our goals. Our next goal is the Outdoor Skating Rink and Building Project.
Spray Park Process
Spray Park Process
The Cameron Heights Park & Facilities Development Committee (Subcommittee of CHCL) is working in collaboration with the City of Edmonton through the Neighbourhood Park Development Program (NPDP). The intent of the NPDP program is to guide, facilitate and support the creation of great spaces and fun places for neighbourhood play, wellness and learning through active partnerships with the community.
The City provides a team of experts to support community volunteers throughout the NPDP process with a Neighbourhood Resource Coordinator and a Project Manager.
