The Alberta Recreation & Parks Association
The Alberta Recreation & Parks Association (ARPA) is a provincial not-for-profit organization committed to collaborating with our members and partners to help build healthy citizens, communities and environments.
We believe recreation and parks include everything from play to sport to culture and outdoor pursuits. All are essential to support the social, mental, spiritual and physical well-being of citizens and communities.
Featured Award Recipients
We are proud of the impactful work our members continue to do. Alberta’s recreation and parks community has developed awards and scholarships that honour the leadership of its communities, organizations, volunteers, professionals and the businesses.
