Welcome to CRA
A very warm welcome to the Craigpark Residents' Association
Craighall and Craighall Park, established over 100 years ago, are well known for their convenient location, amenities and quality of residential life, and are a very special part of Johannesburg.
The CRA, originally formed in 1950 and renamed in the 1970s, is now 63 years old, and so possibly one of the longest established RAs in Joburg. It plays an extremely important and proactive role in looking after the interests of residents and has become a force to be reckoned with.

NEWS UPDATES.... STOP PRESS - SAVING YOU MONEY Costs rise - petrol, rates... but when did you last look at your insurance costs? How much are you spending a month? The CRA has negotiated two short term insurance affinity arrangements - one is with Alexander Forbes and the other with Commrisk Insurance Brokers (Pty) limited. We are sure that you'll be surprised at how much money you could save and, as a value-added benefit, help underwrite other CRA projects. |
CRA AGM 2013:
Chairman's report - review for the past year (April 2012 to May 2013) - see what was achieved in the past year and plans for the forthcoming year.
Very interesting address by Cllr Tim Nast, Mayor, Mid-Vaal... how we could solve Jhb's billing problems, manage traffic better... and many more ideas.

Memories of the Craighall Open Day Centenary celebration ...
The competition prizes reflected the generosity of our business community. The CRA has awarded such businesses a Community Award certificate - support those businesses which display the certificate! See the full programme for the day. |
Almost every activity was based on what residents and businesses in our area offer - a remarkable spread of talent and enterprise. |
