2012 – Valemount’s community hall is an important center of activity, particularly during Valemountain Days, within the idyllic rural community that is nestled in a valley amongst three majestic mountain ranges. Having long served the community, the hall was in need of updates and upgrades to enable the facility to continue hosting events throughout the year. The municipality, which owns and operates the Valemount Community Hall, was focused on a comprehensive renovation project that will not only make the building more attractive for hosting community events, but also increase the facility’s flexibility in accommodating a wide variety of uses.
The community hall is an important hub for events in Valemount from weddings, community dances, family reunions and fitness activities, to a meeting place for local clubs and community groups. As a result, the hall plays an important role for service-based businesses and non-profits that rely on the facility as their venue for activities that generate revenue to support their organizations.
The hall does not have the capacity to support all of the functions that are demanded, but with funding from Northern Development in partnership with the Village of Valemount, the municipality is beginning the process of modernizing the facility, making it ideal for all forms of uses that community groups and small business owners have been seeking.
