Strathcona Community League

This building was built in the 1980s and includes some great space for use by various groups. My Kiwanis club rents the upstairs lounge once a year to host the Buy Nothing Day Free Market in November for example. A pottery group rents the hall upstairs for their events. Helen is the wonderful woman who takes care of the building and she is wonderful. If she’s unavailable or has to step out she’ll leave contact information for someone more local to the hall in case you need anything. Helen is good at making sure that snow is cleared from walkways etc. as best as can be as quickly as possible given a major snowstorm.
The hall is a little bit difficult to access if you’re unfamiliar with it, but it has ample free parking, is close to transit and major roadways and is within walking distance of many facilities in the Old Strathcona area.
I’m really fond of some of the more recent upgrades to the upstairs lounge: the improved lighting makes it much more of a wonderful area to host events, for example.

This building reminds me of Boston. Big, old, red brick. Exactly how the Community League in Strathcona should be!
I was here attending/​helping at an under 40 mixer event in the big room upstairs. It’s got wooden floors and mirrors across one wall, so I think it must be used for exercise classes and things of that nature, too.
I’m sure there’s much more to explore in this big ol’ building since it’s HUGE. Gotta give props to its sweet location, plenty of parking, and the playground nearby. The perfect family-​friendly place for this neighbourhood.

I recently had an event in their hall. The hall fits about 80 people. It has a kitchen and a bar. I paid $ 300 and a $ 300 deposit. The hall was great and we had a great time. The lady who manages the hall is really good and helpful. I would recommend this hall to anyone getting married or having an event.
