MLRA Boundaries
We understand there are homes in McKenzie Lake that receive this news publication but are not entitled to MLRA membership. These areas include – Mt Allan, Mt Douglas, Mt Apex, Mt Aberdeen, and some homes on Mt McKenzie Drive. We do apologize, but these areas are not entitled to MLRA membership. The Association boundary lines are determined by the registered Articles of Association, which is a document that specifies the regulations for a company’s operation. The MLRA Board cannot arbitrarily alter the boundary line.
Programs and Events
Due to COVID-19 and the gathering restrictions imposed by the Government of Alberta, we have unfortunately cancelled all summer programs and summer events.
Beach Club Rentals
Due to COVID-19, the Government of Alberta has imposed restrictions on gatherings, and as a result we have had to cancel many functions to date and suspend all future rentals. Please visit our website for up to date information regarding rentals – www.mlra.ca, or email [email protected].
Grants from the Alberta Government
On behalf of the members of the McKenzie Lake Residents Association, the Board of Directors extends a big thank you to the Alberta Government for their generous donations through the Alberta Lottery Fund to help fund renovations completed to the interior and exterior of the buildings over the last couple years. Most recently, we received a grant to help offset the cost of a replacement maintenance commercial mower with winter attachments. Thank you, Alberta!
