About QRRA

The Quail Ridge Residents’ Association (QRRA) was incorporated under the Society Act (BC) on December 4, 2000.  See:  Quail Ridge Certificate of Incorporation.

​

​What We Do

​​

 - QRRA acts as a conduit for community interests and we communicate community information.

​​

 - We promote community safety through member awareness and communication, including our FireSmart program that works to ensure we are safe in the event of another wildfire. 

​​

 - We worked with the City of Kelowna’s Fire Department and UBCO to develop our approved evacuation route.

​​

 - We also donated the stone aggregate garbage cans around the community and coordinated with the City for garbage collection.

​​

 - We partner with local businesses, UBCO, YLW and the Okanagan Golf Club to build and foster long term relationships.  This includes a 10% discount for Quail Ridge members at Gulfstream (Four Points Hotel) and Table 19 (Okanagan Golf Club). 

 

- Because of our partnership with UBCO, the community received the donation of a fire sensor in the Linear Parks from UBCO’s Centre for Co-existence with Wildfire!

​

- We work with the City of Kelowna on issues that impact our community.

​​

 - We co-ordinate many community events, such as our annual Quail Ridge community Garage Sale and community FireSmart clean ups.

 

​Membership

 

Everyone living in Quail Ridge can become a member by simply signing up on the JOIN page.​  Joining allows you to stay informed and involved in your community!

 

And ... if you want to help us with some of our costs, you can become a voting member.  For $10 for a two year voting membership, you help support us running the community website and some of our insurance requirements (Volunteers Insurance and Directors and Officers Liability Insurance).  You would have a say with a vote at the AGM on issues around how we run the association and spend its money.  

 

As a voting member, your participation at our AGM is critical. Under the Societies Act (BC), non-profits must hold an AGM once every calendar year to conduct business and vote in a new Board of Directors. Our bylaws state the AGM must have a minimum of 10% of the voting members in attendance.
