Community associations play a vital role in maintaining and enhancing the quality of life in their respective communities. At the heart of every community association is its board of directors, comprised of dedicated individuals who serve in various officer roles.

Being part of the Board of Directors is a fulfilling experience and you can put into it (and get out of it) as much as you would like. The commitment level is anything from 3-24 hours per month depending what your projects and passions are and what you want to get involved with. Anyone can be on any committee, so the limit is up to you!

Lynn Valley Community Association is seeking candidates to fill upcoming vacancies on our Board of Directors for officer positions as well as ‘member at large’, to provide strategic advice, and oversee its performance, financial reporting, and involvement in the community.

Interested? Apply today!

Adopt a Street Program

April 14, 2023April 14, 2023LVCA

Did you Know you can Adopt A Street?

By volunteering to adopt a street or trail and regularly collecting litter you improve the neighbourhood for everyone. It can be a family affair, including kids in the process, and you’ll get a bit of exercise as well. It’s easy to do, and you are sure to meet a few appreciative neighbours while you are out doing the job.

The District supplies trash grabbers, hi-vis vests, and some garbage bags to get you started. The minimum commitment is only once a month, but you can do it more often.

This is a great opportunity for community associations, local businesses, schools, sports teams, individuals, and families to make a difference in our community. You can even challenge and inspire other groups or neighbours to see who can keep the cleanest street.

When you adopt a street, you can:

build a stronger sense of community in your neighbourhood
get to know your neighbours
improve your street
reduce litter, vandalism, and crime in your area

Do we have any volunteers willing for LVCA to adopt a street? Let us know! We’ll for a ‘posse’ and head out!
