Coffee Drop in at the Ritchie Hall

Tuesday, 10am - 1pm

Come warm up and hang out at the hall on Tuesday mornings for “Coffee and Conversation”.

Meet a neighbour at the hall, or pop by on your own. Bring your wee one for playmat time, bring your neighbourhood stories, bring your studying, or bring a book.

Caregivers of little ones 5 and under are invited to bring your balls, run bikes and ride-on toys and let the little ones have 'free run' of our large hall. Coffee is on for parents. 

Hosted by our Hall Manager, this is also a great time to chat with her about your upcoming rental or program idea, or to pick something up.

An RCL or other Edmonton League membership is required, and available to purchase on site. Supervision is not provided - parents are expected to stay in the space and monitor safe play. Hall Manager is present if there are any concerns. 

NEED TO KNOW:

• drop-in, no registration required

• free parking in our lot

• it’s FREE!

• everyone is welcome!

West Ritchie Garden Meetup

Last Wednesday of the Month: 7 pm

Season Series: April 2025 - September 2025

Location: 7900 A 101 St NW Edmonton, AB T6E 0B9

Would you like to join our garden committee to help run the garden? 

What we need: A small monthly commitment (1-5 hours) during the gardening season.. The monthly meeting will occur in the garden on the last Wednesday of the month. It is a casual, BYOB meet-up where we talk upgrades, priorities, issues, grants, and stories. All RCL volunteers must be RCL members/associate members. If you’re up for it, volunteers will help make garden clean-up, grant applications, or Instagram management easier. 

What you get out of it: Your voice will shape the future of the garden, including how grants are spent, how maintenance is assigned, and more. You will be guaranteed one garden plot for your effort. If you need a letter or reference for your time, one will be provided. The best part? The garden crew is a lot of fun, and the people are nice. We would love to have you join.   

Email Hanna at garden@ritchie-league.com or feel free to show up at the picnic tables around 7. We will cancel or reschedule if the weather is particularly unpleasant.

Snow Angels

Pick up your shovels on Tuesdays, 10 am - 12 pm

Swing by the hall on Tuesdays starting February 18, from 10am -12pm to pick up your shovel and meet other volunteers.

Let's help each other keep Ritchie's sidewalks clear and accessible this winter!

Ritchie Community League is encouraging you to become a "Snow Angel" and help our neighbours in need of snow removal help.

Offering and asking for help are both important ways for our community to come together and keep our walks clear all season long!

SNOW ANGELS

Ritchie residents interested in becoming an official Snow Angel are invited to stop by the hall on Tuesday mornings between 10am to 12pm to register and learn more about the program.

Youth are welcome to register as Snow Angels alongside an adult family member.

With support from the City of Edmonton we have FREE SHOVELS to give away to the first 25 Snow Angels who register. (RCL membership required)

DO YOU NEED ASSISTANCE?

If you or a neighbour are in need of snow removal, please come to the hall and pick up a lawn sign.

OFFICIAL KICK OFF EVENT!

Join us at Ritchie Hall on February 22, from 11am to noon. There will be a short presentation about this program and shovel and lawn sign pick up. Coffee, hot chocolate and donuts will be served.

MORE DETAILS

All program participants (Snow Angels and neighbours who request assistance) will be entered to win a gift card to a local Ritchie business.

When the snow disappears for the year, all participants are invited to a wrap up event at the hall with great prizes!

This is a volunteer-run RCL program.
