Dwight Hall

As you come to the corner turn left onto Walnut Street. Next to the 1929 Cenotaph is the Grand Old Lady of the Townsite, Dwight Hall. Built in 1927, the hall is every bit as handsome today as it was in the "roaring 20s"

Every organization had an annual ball and every enjoyed the springy dance floor that could hold 800 people. Dwight Hall was said to the be the grandest community hall in BC at the time it was built. The library and lodge facilities were housed on the lower level of the building. Concerts, masquerade balls and gatherings of all sorts took place in the main hall. Dwight Hall is still the centre of many community activities today.
