Community Centre History
The Community Centre Hall was located on Main Street (now Galetta Side Road). It has been the centre of community life in Galetta since the early 1900s. The hall hosted dancing classes, concerts, banquets and euchre parties. Especially during the Depression years, young people gathered there for an evening of entertainment provided by local talent.
In 1987 the hall was moved to the present location in Russell Park, at 119 Darwin St. This land was donated by the Russell family.
Additional facilities were subsequently built adjoining the main building. The Donald MacHardy Lawn Bowling Greens were established in 1992 and used until 2023. The Rink & Sport Centre were completed in 2000.
