Large enough to have tables in the main area, and a dancing area in the other half. A useful-looking kitchen (oven, stovetop, refrigerator, lots of counter space) with a serving window to where the two halves meet. Good choice for a party where you arrange catering separately or don't need one.

I had my first visit to the Inglewood Community Hall last night for the Kit and Kaboodle Circus. I…read morewondered how they were going to simulate a big top in a community hall. When I pulled up and saw the circular hall, it all became clear! Spacious and well-kept, the hall is in good shape and looks to be home to a hub of different activities, like the Rhythm Cafe-live drumming and music the last Friday of every month. I like the circular setup of this hall better than your typical rectangular halls. It made for a good view of the stage from almost any angle. Acoustics for the show were clear, although I'm not sure if the hall came with a sound system or not. At any rate, it's a nice little spot for community events down in Inglewood.

I wish I could give ZERO stars or even negative stars!!! I was living here 19 years and they take…read moreour $262.50 annually for 3 months of activities and during the 2 year Pandemic we got absolutely NOTHING except the bill. The tennis courts and water park gets 4 stars (not even 5!). Today at Canada Day on Jul.01,2022 they gave my son 10 year old melted candy and we only got one tiny burger per person. This was actually the first time they did something about keeping the "uncouth" Harvest Hills and Coventry Hills folks off our community property. So for all their "savings" from keeping the heathens off our private property they were generous enough to hand out one free tiny hamburger per person this year after being closed for 2 years due to Covid. We in panorama deserve better than this BS! My question is: ".. I can't possibly be the only Panorama hills sucker to gratefully pay that $262.50 per year for nothing, basically!"

So to have access to this community centre/park you need to be a resident of Panorama Hills. You…read morecough up $250 a year for the duration that you live there and probably get a good 3-4 months use from it, if that. Personally, I think that's an outrageous fee, but seeing that no one has made a stink about it, that's the way it is. The park itself if lovely, I like the fact they have a kiddie water park, playground, sand pit and beach volleyball court but that's it. For a community as large as Panorama, the water park should be at least double the size it is now, because, come a hot day, good luck even finding a spot on the grass to sit. There is a huge green space that is rarely used and some free standing BBQ type things at the far end of the park, that I have never seen used. They get docked severe points in the rental facility though. For the past 2 years you CANNOT GET A SUNDAY BOOKING PRIOR TO 2:00PM. Why you might ask? Because a church group has pre-booked every Sunday! Is this fair you ask? Hell NO! I, like everyone else in Panorama Hills cannot pre-book a year in advance on a Sunday so why is it that a church group has priority? I can't anticipate that churchy is not paying for using this facility as you have to pay per hour. Also, you have to have a $250 cash deposit provided prior to your event that they hold until your function is completed. Now that the cat is out of the bag, I will be contacting the facility manager because I recently found this out whilst trying to book this venue for my kids birthday party, guess what? It has to be after 2:00pm, thanks churchy for f'ing up an entire day! If anyone sees this and is a Panorama Hills resident, please contact Scott Chesniak, the facility manager at the e-community centre directly and voice your concerns so everyone can have the same opportunity to use the facility. The number there is 403-226-4386. MINUS 1 star for the ridiculous fee home association fee; MINUS 2 STARS FOR PRE-BOOKING A CHURCH GROUP FOR EVERY FREAKING SUNDAY FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS!

Edgemont Community Association is an excellent venue for a small to medium sized wedding. If you…read morewant to keep your costs down, and not have to pay the exorbitant prices for drinks etc, Edgemont is an excellent choice. The facility has been recently painted with contemporary colors and looks fresh and bright. They have five large windows that look over a beautiful patio area with a large gazebo, as well as a beautiful view of COP and the mountains. We had our daughter's wedding there this past weekend (August 2nd), and held the ceremony on the patio. It was perfect and the setting is breathtaking. The staff are absolutely amazing and very accommodating. There are round tables and chairs that seat 200 included with rental of the facility. The kitchen is large and can accommodate professional catering. We rented the hall for both Friday evening and all day Saturday and it was very reasonable. Check this place out and visualize all the possibilities you can for your wedding here. BTW, I've also used this facility for a children's Christmas party for a non profit organization and had the same wonderful experience!

The Hillhurst-Sunnyside Community Association runs an indoor flea market every Sunday from 7 a.m…read more to 3 p.m. I have participated in this flea market as both a shopper and a vendor, and I am happy to share my thoughts as both. As a shopper, i was shocked at the size of it. When I first arrived and looked around, there had to be 50+ vendors around this gymnasium.. Just when I thought I saw it all, I found out there were three large rooms with MORE vendors. So if you go, keep wandering. There is definately more than simply that one big area. This is definately more of a flea market with plenty of bric a brac, as opposed to an artizan market such as the Calgary Farmer's Market, so be prepared for an indoor garage sale-type scenario. I got some fantastic deals on CDs and second hand books, so I was quite a happy little shopper. I also bought a pair of gorgeous earrings for $2. Seriously! There was one kiosk in there that made falafels that was delicous. :) I don't know if this lady is there every week, but she was worth every penny. As a vendor, the price was definately right. A table is $25. However, admittedly it is tough to get space there, since it is so busy. I was lucky enough to secure two tables for $50, so I actually had some room to display some clothing I was selling to raise money for the Giver for Liver Marathon. www.giverforliver.ca. Since the crowd was such bargain hunters, I didn't have much choice but to price my wares accordingly, therefore, making it difficult to do exceedingly well profit-wise. I know for certain there are many vendors that do very well there, but for me, with second hand clothing, it was a challenge. An item I would sell on kijiji for $10, I had to sell for $5, and more often than not, I would get haggled to $2. The vendor across from me dropped his prices all day and gave away all of his product for free in the last hour, which made it extremely hard for me to compete with free. I did exhibit in January where customer traffic was slower, so I may give this another kick at the can in the spring and update my review. However, my experience with the post-Christmas traffic was not a lot of profit for a nine hour day. I tried for two weekends. The first weekend, I didn't make my table (sold $40 worth of items, and the two tables were $50). The second week, I walked away with $55, so I had a much better sales day, but when I divide $55 by 9 hours, the charity only made $6.11 per hour. Much less than minimum wage. However, I spoke to many vendors around me, and many of them have been exhibiting there for years and have been profitable, selling antiquey-type housewares or books. So, it may simply be my product line (which was second hand clothing) or possibly my display, or other factors directly related to me. However, dealing with the community center was an absolute pleasure. Bonnie was extremely helpful and all the vendors I interacted with were a pleasure to deal with.

When I got there, I was a little bit confused by the architecture of the building and wasn't sure where I was supposed to go in. Finally, I made my way inside to what I believe to be the main floor. There wasn't a ton of space in here, but more than enough room to highlight some great vendors. I browsed some jams, rad terrariums, artwork, etc. I made my way upstairs, but again, the size of the building didn't allow for much capacity and I ended up feeling too close to strangers and left. Even though I once lived in Bridgeland, this is the first time I have visited this centre. Bridgeland is getting to be kind of cool, and I look forward to seeing more rad events like this in the future. Review 32/30 of Yelp's 30 day Challenge 2012
