Who are we? Our Mission Who we serve Meetings Executive Executive Positions Constitution

PESCA needs you

Your Community Association needs people like you to run it.
The commitment is minimal (we meet only once a month - see dates) but it ensures that the views and concerns of the Bay Ridges residents are known and understood and you can be the link that we need.

Here is where you can get involved and make a difference.
If you are interested in any of the positions, simply like more information or have any questions, click on Contact Us (on the menu) and/or join us at our any of our monthly meeting (this is not a commitment).
