Greenfield Community League
Helping Good Neighbours make a Great Community
About GCL
Greenfield Community League acts on behalf of our members and offers programs and services to reflect the community's needs, interests, and diversity. GCL brings neighbours together to:
"A strong and effective community league is essential in order to retain its vitality. Local leagues in cooperation with the EFCL are powerful voices to speak on behalf of communities and their needs. This has been demonstrated many times since Greenfield was established." 
About Community LeaguesGreenfield Community League is part of the Edmonton Federation of Community Leagues (EFCL); a volunteer movement that has helped shape our city for over 100 years.
The first community leagues began as a grass roots movement to lobby the city for neighbourhood improvements such as extension of roads and utilities. Over time, the leagues’ mandate has expanded to providing recreational programming and community facilities. EFCL is now the largest registered not-for-profit organization in North America. >>learn more about EFCL About GreenfieldThe community of Greenfield is in South West Edmonton between 111th and 119th Street, and 34th and 40th Avenue. It was built up in the 1960's and 70's and now has about 1,400 homes.
Our neighbourhood was named in honour of Herbert Greenfield, leader of the United Farmers Party and Premier of Alberta from 1921 to 1925. We are close to schools, shopping, Confederation Leisure Centre, the LRT at Southgate, Snow Valley ski hill, and the river valley trails. We are known for our good neighbours and community spirit. |
