Welcome to the Web Site of the Greater Towson Council of
Community Associations

Who we are

The Greater Towson Council of Community Associations (GTCCA) is a nonprofit
umbrella organization representing the interests and concerns of more than thirty
community associations in the Greater Towson area.  We are organized for the purpose
of education, assistance in development, and as a means of presenting a united front on
common issues or problems too large or too complex to be handled effectively by
individual community associations.
When we meet

Monthly business meetings are held on the third Thursday of the month (except July and
December) at 7:30 p.m. at the Sheppard Pratt Health System Conference Center, 6501
North Charles Street, Towson, Maryland 21204.  Meetings are open to GTCCA members
and invited guests.  For a printable map, click here and look for Building # 2.  In inclement
weather, the GTTCA follows the school-closing procedure of Baltimore County Schools.  
Check their web site at www.bcps.org.  

If you believe that your Neighborhood Association in the Greater Towson area may not be
represented, please contact Linda Galati, GTCCA Secretary, to determine if your
community association is a member.

What's New?

  • We were sad to learn of the passing of our long-time friend and colleague, Betsy
    Kahl, who died on February 8, 2010.  Betsy had a decades-long history of
    community activism, starting with her fight against the closing of Towson
    Elementary School in the 1970s and continuing until her death as an avid
    defender of the Burkleigh Square community.  She served as President of the
    GTCCA in the 1990s and as Vice-President in 2006.  Betsy was a dear friend to
    many of us and we will miss her kind and gentle spirit.  To read a touching tribute
    to Betsy, please click here.

  • The GTCCA held its annual elections at the December meeting.  The following
    officers were elected/re-elected:
  • Ed Kilcullen, President
  • John Simms, Vice President
  • Josh Glikin, Vice President
  • Peggy Squitieri, Treasurer
  • Linda Galati, Secretary

  • After months of advocacy for a new elementary school in Towson, the Baltimore
    County School Board approved a plan to build a new school on the grounds of the
    Ridge Ruxton School on N. Charles Street in Towson.  The new school is under
    construction and the redistricting process is underway.  To learn more about the
    redistricting process, go to:  www.towsonfamiliesunited.com.
