THE DEMMITT HALL
We always have a lot of fun things going on at the hall from a Family Pub Night with musicians playing and the community getting together, an ongoing Homesteading Workshop Series, a Documentary Night or a Concert put on by the Borderline Culture Foundation. Check it out and see all of our future upcoming events.

News!
We are excited to announce that we were successful in our grant application for the Atco Community Energy Fund to install battery back up for our solar array at the hall! Thank you Atco! This will continue our quest to become near net zero.
We will start working on this in the near future and hope to have it up and running by Spring 2025 at the latest!

The awe that mountainous landscapes evoke is universal, yet most of us seldom venture into true wilderness. A mother-daughter team sets out for six months in a tent in the winter mountains; a group of nuns inhabit a mountain retreat to be closer to God; a photographer buried in an avalanche; an impassioned alpinist; a focused snow artist; a couple who has been living off grid in the mountains for nearly 50 years. For them, the draw of the mountains is so strong that their lives must revolve around it. Shot in cinematic detail, This Mountain Life is a riveting portrait of human passion set high in the snowy peaks of Canada.
