President’s
Message
Spring Has
Arrived!
With warmer
weather here, it’s a great time to celebrate how the Chaparral Community Association
(CCA) helps make our neighbourhood a vibrant and welcoming place to live.
The CCA is a
volunteer-led organization representing Lake Chaparral, Chaparral Ridge,
Chaparral Ravine, and Chaparral Valley. We work with local government on
development issues and advocate for priorities such as education,
transportation, infrastructure, and the environment. We also support local
sports, social initiatives, and community programs.
Stay connected
through the Chaparral Trailblazer, our website, and Facebook page. We encourage
residents to become members and attend monthly meetings—your involvement helps
shape our community.
