Questions renters ask

Don't see your question? Call our Hall Manager, Stephen Mawdsley, at 250-217-6046 or email esteph@shaw.ca.

Yes. Self-cater in our kitchen, bring your own caterer, or choose one we recommend: Island Culinary Services (250-480-8855) for an elegant, first-class event, or Order of the Eastern Star Catering (Phil Archer, va7acr@gmail.com) for great food at a mid-range price.


Absolutely. Decorate the hall in your own style. Use our 60-inch rounds, rectangular tables and chairs, or bring in your own to suit your layout.
