MPCA Board Report

It’s hard to believe April is already here! We’re excited to head into spring with some great community happenings. On April 24, the third Annual Taste of Mount Pleasant returns. This popular event has sold out each year, and we can’t wait to see what the Special Events Committee has planned for 2026.

March was Community Association Awareness Month, a reminder of the important role community associations (CAs) play. CAs are non-profit organizations run by neighbours and volunteers. They connect residents, provide a voice for local issues, and offer social, educational, and recreational opportunities right in your own community.

Volunteers are the heart of MPCA, and is a wonderful way to give back, meet neighbours, develop new skills, and explore areas of interest, from events to environmental initiatives.

We are currently looking for an interested individual to join our Executive Board as Vice President, as well as someone to take over as Hall Director to keep our Community Hall running smoothly.

Our Grants Coordinator role has just opened and a great way to assist with community initiatives.

This year, we would like 2026 to be the year we develop a Community Watch group. If you are interested in being involved, helping to get it off the ground, or taking a leadership role in this initiative, we would love to hear from you.

If any of these roles sound like your kind of challenge, reach out to [email protected].

The Communications Team is preparing for a future Communications Director role ahead of the AGM in October. If you enjoy social media, newsletters, and digital communications, this is a great opportunity to help shape how Mount Pleasant stays connected! Reach out to [email protected] if you’re interested in joining the team or taking on the Director role.

The Green Initiatives Committee (GIC) is preparing for the Annual Community Cleanup on May 3 in partnership with the City of Calgary. These events help residents safely dispose of household items that do not fit in their garbage cart and save a trip to the dump. More details on accepted items will be available on our website and social media closer to the date.

The GIC is also looking for people to join their team and bring fresh ideas for sustainability projects. Reach out to [email protected] if you are interested in joining.

We hope to see you at upcoming events, and we encourage anyone interested in volunteering to reach out. Together, we make Mount Pleasant a welcoming, connected, and vibrant community.
