Meadowlark Park Community Association
Welcome to Meadowlark Park
Welcome
to the Meadowlark Park Community website. We appreciate that you've
chosen to visit us, and hope you'll enjoy your tour of our site.
This site is intended for you, the residents of and visitors to our
community. Please bookmark our page and come back often to learn what's
going on in Meadowlark Park. Check the Newsflash! page for the latest
updates. Please also check out the features we will add from time to
time, and feel free to take part in our community opinion polls.
The Meadowlark Park Community Association is made up of a number of
volunteers who work in the interests of the residents of Meadowlark
Park. These volunteers work hard, in addition to their regular daily
activities, to ensure that Meadowlark remains an excellent place to
live. From the operation and maintenance of the community hall to
political representation at all levels, we do our best to protect and
properly represent the community of Meadowlark Park. Why? Because we
realize that our community is more than just a bunch of houses - it's
people, and the place those people call home.
We are a member in good standing of the
Federation of Calgary
Communities (FCC), and we work regularly with City departments to ensure
that the needs and rights of Meadowlarkers are respected and protected.
Meadowlark is an excellent place to live. We are central in the city,
with good traffic and Transit access right on our doorstep - access
that's only improving as the massive Glenmore/Elbow/5th Street (GE5)
project comes to a close. Also, we have Chinook Centre as a valued
neighbour, giving us the option to be "green" - to walk to do most of
our shopping - and we are the envy of many neighbourhoods for these very
reasons. Yes, we are hidden, but we're also accessible - in all the best
possible ways.
But there's one thing to remember: we on the executive are also
Meadowlark Park residents! What affects you affects us, so let us know
your concerns so that we can continue our efforts to represent you to
the best of our ability. Also, if you have a project in mind - for
beautification, maintenance, or for a social function - let us know. A
community is what its residents make it; you get out what you put in.
Anyway, please: take a look around, and have a great day!

The Meadowlark Monument
The monument was erected in October 2007 on the GE5 residual lands as one of the last parts of that major project.
It commemorates Milton Williams, one of the original pioneer inhabitants of the area.
