CHOA Annual General Meeting
Thanks to all of you who attended the meeting on November 28, 2024 (Thursday) at 7 PM. A summary of the meeting will be circulated as soon as possible.
snow removal update
November 25, 2024: A new contract is being produced due to changes required (areas removed and added, and an updated map). Unfortunately this was not communicated earlier, but it is why snow removal hasn’t taken place on the pathways yet.
The contractor has indicated that they are hoping to have everything in place to do a clearing tomorrow (November 26th), however due to the liability issues surrounding snow removal on City property, this may not happen until the new agreement has been fully executed. Updates will be posted as available.

Want to sponsor a CHOA event?
Did you know that the CHOA hosts events and regularly communicates to residents through email newsletters and a monthly printed newsletter?
A few small businesses have approached the CHOA with an interest in providing sponsorship of varying levels, in exchange for promotion in different forms. We would love to help promote local businesses and are able to do so in a number of different ways:
Level one: $50.00-$99.00
Includes: Social media promotion
Level two: $100.00-$199.00
Includes: Social media promotion, and inclusion of your business name as a sponsor in our newsletters
Level three: $200.00+
Includes: Social media promotion, inclusion of business name as a sponsor/partner in our newsletters, and in-person representation opportunities – Businesses are welcome to set up a table or tent to offer promotional items (ie: business cards, samples, or draw baskets), provide a tent/canopy with business logo/info for our use, or have representatives mingle in person during events to hand items out.
As we continue to grow, so will our promotional offerings, so your feedback is welcome.
If you are interested in sponsorship, please reach out to us at admin@crestmonthall.com!
Questions about who is responsible for what
We know that there are many questions surrounding which organization is responsible for what. We will be creating a detailed document to provide a clear breakdown. The CHOA, CCA, and City of Calgary websites each provide details about their individual responsibilities.
Questions for the CHOA should be directed to admin@crestmonthall.com.
Questions for the CCA should be directed to info@crestmontcommunity.org.
Questions for the City of Calgary should be directed to 311.
While the CHOA Board welcomes questions, conversations and engagement with our members, we do expect that such interactions with volunteers, staff, and all other members generally, be respectful. To that end the Board has adopted an anti-harassment policy that is posted below. Thank you for helping make our community a pleasant and cooperative one.
