Membership Drive

The Crestmont Community Association invites you to join us or renew your membership before June 1, 2019 in order to be entered into a draw for a two-night stay from a selection of accomodations in Banff, a $100 gift card to The Keg, and two passes for the hot springs.  The prize is co-sponsored by Scott Brayshaw, and Gerard Chiasson, your local Re/Max realtors.  

Community Pathway and Greenspace Cleanup

Please join the CCA on June 1 for a pathway and greenspace cleanup. Bags, gloves, and wildflower seeds can be collected from 9-10am outside the doors of the community hall. All bags, once filled and tied, can be left near the brown bear bins located around the drainage pond for collection by the Parks Department.

Compost Your Real Christmas Tree

Christmas Table & Decorations from Picjumbo

Cut your tree into smaller pieces to put into your green cart. Make sure the lid can close.

If your green cart is full, tie extra branches (no more than four feet long) together with a natural fibre string or place them in paper yard waste bags. Set tied branches or yard waste bags at least one foot from the side of your green cart.

You can also bring your Christmas tree to a tree drop-off from December 26 to January 31.

How to prepare your tree

• Remove all lights, ornaments, tinsel, string and tree stands.

• Do not wrap or bag your tree.

Community Garden Opportunity
