About Old Ottawa South Community Association

OSCA strives to improve the quality of life in the community in a variety of ways, including: -Offering social events to strengthen community bonds and help neighbours get to know each other. -Providing educational, sports, fitness, and recreational programming to the community, including the enriching after-school programs that are so important to working parents. -Working actively to promote and protect the interests of the community with regard to planning and future development in and around OOS. -Ensuring that the community's interests are effectively communicated to the public, City of Ottawa, and other governments and agencies whose activities may affect OOS. -Keeping the community informed about activities and opportunities of interest to the community. -Initiating new programs and policies from time to time to benefit the community. OSCA operates from the Ottawa South Community Centre, aka the "Old Firehall", at 260 Sunnyside Avenue, where it holds most of its popular programs, various community and committee meetings, monthly Board meetings, and the Annual General Meeting (AGM). OSCA is managed by a board of volunteers from the community, who form the OSCA Board of Directors and Executive. A variety of committees made up of interested OOS residents and Board members help run OSCA's activities. There is a committee that manages OSCA's program offerings, special events, and zoning, development and traffic issues. In the early months of each year, the nominating committee seeks to identify members of the community who wish to be nominated for the following year's Board. All OOS residents are encouraged to express their interest to OSCA. The activities of OSCA and the Board are governed by the Association's Bylaws, policies approved by the board and standard operating procedures.
