The Union Hall Community Centre, a Registered Charity, is situated at 1984 Wolf Grove Road at the corner of Tatlock Road, an 8 km drive west of Almonte. The hall has been proudly owned and maintained by the local community continuously since 1857. It is currently closed for the winter, but we are working on improvements to the facility with a view to year-round operation.
Each spring, people look forward to Union Hall’s Pancake Breakfast, a major fundraiser for the hall. This year, the event is scheduled for Sunday, March 30, from 8 a.m. until noon. Bring the whole family and enjoy good food while re-connecting with your friends and neighbours in the cozy atmosphere of this community hub.
Volunteers will be dishing out generous portions of pancakes, sausages, baked beans and blueberries, with maple syrup (courtesy Fortune Farms), accompanied by fruit juice, tea and Equator coffee. Gluten-free option available. Prices for large and regular portions are $16 and $14 respectively. Children five and under eat for free.
We have found that a system of reserved timeslots, which reduces line-ups at the door and allows us to ensure a manageable flow of visitors, works well. Patrons have the assurance that there will be room for their party at a time of their choosing. We have also increased the number of volunteers to make sure these hard-working folks had a couple of minutes now and then to rest and maybe even sample the goods!
So to be sure of a spot, book your tickets now, at Tickets Please (www.ticketsplease.ca). Doesn’t work for you? Contact Linda at camponi@storm.ca or 613-256-2277, and we’ll make sure you don’t get left out.
We are grateful for financial support from the Municipality of Mississippi Mills and The Hub/Rebound.
