Who are we? We are your neighbors. The Association was formed over 25 years ago by homeowners in Great Falls to preserve the low density, semi-rural character of our community, to promote development that is consistent with that character, to be a vehicle for citizen participation in community affairs, and to provide a forum for the discussion of community plans and activities.

Our monthly meetings are open to everyone and we encourage the widest possible expression of views on every issue. Under the overall direction of the Executive Committee, consisting of the elected officers and 12 at large members, the Association undertakes initiatives in various areas of community interest, responds to planning and development proposals, and works with state and county agencies and officials in areas affecting the quality of life in Great Falls. The officers and Executive Committee give generously of their time and energy to help protect and enhance the unique quality of life in our community.
