The DeWinton Hall has adopted the Alberta Restrictions Exemption Program. At the door to any rental, event or activity we are required to ask for proof of full vaccination OR proof of medical exemption OR proof of a negative private pay COVID test within the last 72 hours, as well as valid ID. Masking is required at all times in the Hall.
Summer is over and fall has fully arrived. The slow and steady movement into fall has so far been kind and the colours this autumn have definitely helped to soothe our COVID weary souls.
Thank you for your understanding as we all continue to navigate our way through this.
We are very saddened to once again feel the need to cancel children’s Halloween activities at the De Winton Hall as they are held indoors. We hope that you all have fun outdoors with your littles and that next year looks a whole lot different for us all.

New Equipment Update
Basketball Net
Our new outdoor basketball net is up and ready to go. Due to a paint shortage, the key lines may not get painted until the spring but if you or your kids are looking for an outdoor pick up game, head down to the hall and give it a go.
Bring your own ball, or check the shed at the back of the hall for a community one. Here are some fun games to play alone or with just a few friends.
Big thanks go out to Perry Deibert, Mike Kosinec and Jim Vangilst (who brought out the big guns to help get ‘er done – thanks Jim!)
Soccer Nets
Along with the basketball nets, we’ve also installed a set of soccer nets, which will be found on the flat yard on the East side of the property.
Big thanks to Gerry Poole who put the nets together and set them up for us.
Balls etc. will be stored in the new shed behind the hall. All current DCA members will receive an email with the code to the lock once the shed is stocked. You are also always welcome to bring your own ball at anytime.
We’ve recently suffered some vandalism to our playground which is a huge disappointment. Please do be respectful of the equipment so it is there for all to use and enjoy.
Our Volunteers are The BEST!
A brief note to end our brief note – you may notice that there is a theme here when it comes to our volunteers; they are often the same dedicated people!
While we very much appreciate them it can be easy to burn out such a small group of people. If you think you might be able to spare a bit of time to do some community service, please consider stepping up. It is a wonderful way to get involved and meet some new friends.
