Coventry Hills Beautification Initiative
The Northern Hills Community Association is looking to apply for the Inspiring Neighbourhoods Grant offered by the City of Calgary. The main aim of this grant is to support community-led projects and initiatives.
The grant aims to:
Support communities in becoming more socially cohesive with safe, inclusive spaces and programs that respond to residents needs. Help residents feel an increased sense of belonging and contribute meaningfully to their neighbourhood. Develop community groups that are resilient and working towards achieving greater sustainability.
For the purpose of this project, we will be focusing on improving the look of three community entryway signs in Coventry Hills.
The sign locations that we are planning to work on are:
- Country Hills Blvd & Coventry Hills Blvd NE (NE corner)
- Country Hills Blvd & Coventry Blvd NE (NE corner)
- Country Hills Blvd & Coventry Blvd NE (NW corner)
We need your suggestions!
Tell us what improvements you would like to see, any ideas on how to make these entryways more beautiful or what could be done to make you feel a sense of pride to live in the community.
Tell us how you would improve the three entryways in Coventry Hills!

June 2020 Update
The Beautification group has been busy working on some long overdue pruning projects in Coventry Hills! Below are some photos of the progress at Country Hills Blvd and Coventry Hills Blvd. While it’s not perfect, it is a start! Thank you to the awesome crew that came to help!!
If you are interested in getting involved with the Beautification group please reach out to Tara at beautification@nhca.ca.
The appearance of the Northern Hills neighbourhoods is a top priority for the Beautification committee. The pride of place residents feels when their surroundings are beautified is crucial to a sense of well-being.
The Beautification group aims to maintain landscaping around entrance gates and fences built by developers, pruning and weeding of community greenery and the planting of shrubs and flowers in shared spaces.
Current Locations we are Beautifying:
- Corner of Country Hills Boulevard and Coventry Boulevard
- Corner of Coventry Hills Boulevard and Coventry Hills Way
We are a small but mighty group that is passionate about keeping our communities beautiful. We are always looking for volunteers to help enhance designated spaces for the Spring/Summer season. The commitment is very small and requires one to be willing to get some dirt under their nails.
Coventry Hills and the Missing “O”
We know the “O” is missing and has been for a long time, but we need your help!
