Established in 1997, the Richmond Village Association (RVA) is a non-profit organization created to represent the interest of Richmond residents.
Since amalgamation into the City of Ottawa in 2001, the RVA’s role has included that of an advocate where we take a proactive approach on issues concerning Richmond Residents.
We help to form opinions on village issues through town hall meetings, reach a consensus among residents, and then represent the particular viewpoint to various levels of government where the interests of Richmond residents may be affected.
But there is a fun side too! The Richmond Village Association is responsible for organizing and running many of the village events that we enjoy each year, such as the Annual Christmas Parade, Lighting of the Park, Winter Wonderland Banners, and Richmond’s Great Garage Sale. We will soon be adding some new events to promote youth and family enjoyment in our village. Keep an eye out!
The RVA is always looking for new members to help with the fun. Meetings are held at 7:30 pm, the first Tuesday of each month at St. Paul’s United Church. All Richmond residents are welcome and encouraged to attend.
