The Association of Summer Villages of Alberta supports ABmunis and RMA's initiative to increase awareness around the upcoming municipal elections in helping residents that might be interested in running for Council.  We believe the April 23rd session would be the best one for Summer Village residents to attend.  Check out this link on how to register for this webinar:

Webinar Description:

Are you ready to make a difference in your community? If you're considering running for local council in a small Alberta municipality, this is the perfect opportunity for you! Alberta Municipalities (ABmunis) and Rural Municipalities of Alberta (RMA) are hosting a webinar to help you prepare for this year’s election.

 

In this engaging session, you'll learn about the roles and responsibilities of local office, how it compares to federal and provincial governments, and the incredible rewards that come with serving your community. You'll also get an inside look at how councils are structured, what’s expected of council members, and the unique impact you can have in a village and summer village. The content of this webinar is catered to persons who live in a village and summer village; however, any Albertan is welcome to attend this webinar to learn about the experience of serving on council. If the timing of this webinar does not work with your schedule, please feel free to register for any of our upcoming municipal election webinars no matter the type of your municipality.   Visit ABmunis events page for a full listing of the webinars 

But that’s not all! The presentation will feature guest speakers from local councils who will share their personal experiences leading small Alberta municipalities. Plus, there will be a Q&A session where you can ask questions and gain valuable insights on what it’s like to be a local elected official.
