Shawnee-Evergreen Community Association

 

Did you know that more than half of Canadians feel disconnected from their neighbours? And a recent Statistics Canada study confirmed that there is a positive relationship between life satisfaction and individuals’ feelings of belonging to their community and whether they know their neighbours. 

Becoming a member of SECA can help you get to know your neighbours through community events, monthly newsletters, and more. Our mission is to create a more connected and dynamic community where residents have a sense of belonging.

It’s Membership Month ! 

Join SECA to help us build a more neighbourly community.

SECA advocates for the community. We were pleased to be able to positively influence the rezoning of a block of land under development at James McKevitt Rd and Shawnee St SW in 2020. Another rezoning application is before us now and we continue to advocate on behalf of residents.

Though our events and programs have been cancelled due to the pandemic, expenses including insurance, website hosting are ongoing. Once it is safe to do so, our events and programs will restart within City and provincial guidelines.

Help us help you!

SECA is seeking volunteers for these two communications functions. 

NEWSLETTER  – As you can tell from the irregularity of these newsletters, SECA needs someone with a few hours a month to take on this task. Training would be provided if you are not familiar with MailChimp. 

FACEBOOK – If you use Facebook you have the skills required for this volunteer role. And you’d have the support of another account administrator. 
Please email info@shawneeevergreen.ca for more information or to volunteer. Thanks! 
Connect with SECA so we can serve you better!  

We are building a new website including a rolling membership model.
Your patience is appreciated as we work on this project.
