Hosting Events in
Gilmore Park

If you are planning a birthday party, sport team gathering, family reunion, etc. and would like to use Gilmore Park, you should know that Strathcona County does not take bookings for the gazebo area.  You are welcome to come in advance and leave signs indicating the date and time of your event to reserve the tables.  For large events field space can be booked by completing this application.

Neighbourhood Exchange!
If you need to borrow a wheel barrow, furniture dolly, ladder, etc. or need help mending pants or to fix a faucet, post your request to the Gilmore Park Facebook page or email gilmorepark@live.com with your specific need for an item or skill.  We can not guarantee that someone can help but we can facilitate the sharing/exchange by spreading the word! #NeighbourPower

If you would like GPCL to send a note to a neighbour for any reason: new to the neighbourhood, new baby, experienced a loss in the family, etc.  please email us at gilmorepark@live.com
