The Lac Cardinal Hall, built in 1949, is located in the Recreation Lease managed by the MD of Peace No. 135 on the eastern shore of Lac Cardinal. The Municipality rents the 60′ X 100′ hall for all types of functions, usually only from May to October, as it is not kept heated during the winter months. For wedding parties or dining & dances, the maximum occupancy load is 210. The Occupancy load is based on the table set up inside the stag rail. Tables cannot be set up outside the stag rail however, chairs can.
The hall is very unique in that it has a railing all around the perimeter of the hall, with various stories told as to the original purpose of the railing.
In 2015, a new kitchen measuring 24′ x 26′ was added to the north end of the hall. The kitchen is equipped with an upright cooler, a 6-burner commercial gas range with oven, three sinks, and a small chest freezer. It also includes pots, pans, utensils, cups, dishes, some serving dishes, and 1 coffee urn. While there are no small appliances, there is ample counter space for caterers to prepare food, as well as plenty of cupboard storage. The kitchen can be rented independently if needed..
The hall features attached bathrooms equipped with hot water, and there is a small stage situated at one end of the hall. In 2016, the hall underwent renovations, which included updates to the bar, storage areas, and the hall's interior. In 2017, both the bathrooms and the front entry were renovated, making the entry wheelchair accessible. The hall is now furnished with 30 new 5-foot round tables, 250 stacking chairs, complete with dollies for easy transport, as well as several rectangular folding tables available for rental.
The rental rate for the hall, plus GST, must be paid to secure the booking. The rental rates are listed below.
A damage deposit of $500.00 is required before the keys are released. This can be paid in cash, by a separate cheque, or via credit card pre-authorization (note that an additional fee of $16.31 will be charged by Option Pay for credit card payments). The damage deposit will be returned after the hall has been cleaned and passes inspection according to MD standards.
