The Everett Crowley Park Committee

The Everett Crowley Park Committee (ECPC) is a sub-committee of the Champlain Heights Community Association and is made up of park users and local residents who are working to see this green space protected and enhanced for the long term.

The ECPC mission statement is: “To encourage stewardship of Everett Crowley Park as an urban wilderness”.

ECPC liaises with the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation on management issues and improvement projects.

Projects in which the committee has taken an active part include new plantings, removing invasives, organizing community events in the park, maintaining a Mason Bee Condo and maintaining the Butterfly Garden (planted to support bees, butterflies and hummingbirds).

New members to the Everett Crowley Park Committee are always welcome (and needed). The committee meets monthly at the Champlain Heights Community Centre, and we also regularly host park stewardship events.

Did you know that Champlain Heights is home to one of the largest parks in the City? Everett Crowley Park was a closed landfill for 25 years before its official opening as a park in 1987. Native and invasive plants have been slowly recolonizing the whole park, transforming it into a young forest of hardy deciduous trees and opportunistic blackberry.
