Assuming its new status as an independent, non- profit organization in March 2010, CRV continues to champion Calgary’s rivers, creeks and wetlands and promote the stewardship of our watershed resources for future generations.

Mission Calgary River Valleys vigorously supports the integrity of local rivers, creeks, reservoirs and wetlands.
