Get Involved – Volunteer with WPCL

Our community league runs on volunteers. Our neighbours share their time, energy, and ideas. This effort makes Windsor Park a connected, vibrant, and welcoming place to live.

This fall at our Annual General Meeting (Oct. 16, 2025), we will be: adopting the minutes of the 2024 AGM; reviewing annual highlights; financial statements and auditors report, and appointing auditors for 2025-26. We will also be electing our Executive Directors for the upcoming year. Additionally, we will consider any other business identified when adopting the agenda. These positions make up the Executive Board and help guide the overall strategic direction of the league.

Note: WPCL continues to operate under its 2016 Bylaws until the updated, member-approved Bylaws are officially accepted by the Alberta Societies Registry

Executive Director Positions (Elected at AGM)

• President – Provides leadership, chairs meetings, and represents WPCL to the City and community partners.
• Vice President – Supports the President and steps in when needed. Helps coordinate across committees.

Note: Non- Executive Directors/ Coordinators are appointed by the newly elected Executive Board at the first Board meeting after the AGM.

Some of these roles work best with committees; others are handled individually with support from the rest of the Board. Time commitments vary (from a few hours a month to seasonal bursts), and no one does this work alone – you’ll have the support of fellow board members and community volunteers. Priorities reflect the needs of the league and strengths and availability of the people who volunteer each year.
