Built as a memorial to those who died in World War I, the Errington War
Memorial Hall opened its doors on March 22nd, 1922. It is maintained by a non-profit
society made up of volunteers who sponsor cultural, social and recreational activities
for the community. The Hall is located in Errington at 1390 Errington Road, approximately 6km southwest of Parksville on central Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. For a map and directions to the Hall - click here: Location For rental information - click: Rental |
August 16th - 20th, 2010 - AFRO-MUMANZI WORLD MUSIC SUMMER CAMP
This week long camp for youth ages 9-19 will introduce participants to African Marimba playing and hand drumming with a Djembe. By the weeks end they should be able to play a simple melody on the Marimba and a rhythmic solo on the drum. If you're interested, check our Events page for more information. Regretfully our class for this summer is now full.
New Paint, Trim and Windows for the Hall! Have a Look!
This summer in the Hall, the old trim came off, and new paint and trim went on. Many thanks to Denise and her crew for cleaning and painting and to Bege for the fine work on the new trim, windows and frames. You'll find the hall is a lot brighter now.
Kitchen Upgrade - New Sinks and Dishwasher
Thanks to a grant from the RDN and proceeds from Thrifty Foods Smile Card program, we were able to purchase and install new deep sinks and a commercial quality dishwasher. These will make Hall cleanup a snap.
New Heating System and Ceiling Fans
We had been considering replacing our aging oil furnace for some time, and have recently installed ceiling fans (thanks to a generous grant from the Coastal Community Credit Union) to move warm air. Prompted by the failure of our oil tank, and the high cost of replacing it, we went ahead and installed a new electric furnace and heat pump. The Hall is now comfortably warm - but we're busy earning the funds to pay for it.
