SCROLL DOWN to learn some details on local points of interest:
GALETTA COMMUNITY CENTRE
The main building of the Community Centre has been the centre of Galetta's Community activity since the early 1900s. Formerly called Russell's Hall ( originally Whyte's Hall), it was located on the Main Street ( now Galetta Side Road). 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 Russell Hall was moved to the present location in Russell Park, at 119 Darwin St.

An extension was added to the main building to accommodate additional facilities. The Donald MacHardy Lawn Bowling Greens were established in 1992 and the Rink & Sport Centre were completed in 2000.

GALETTA LAWN BOWLING


The Donald MacHardy Lawn Bowling Greens were established in 1992 and appropriately bear the name of the local resident who was the driving force behind its concept and construction.
Comprising eight lanes, the club draws its membership from a broad community that extends well beyond Galetta's boundaries. The club has a very active recreational and competitive program as well as social activities throughout the season.

Accessible facilities for the physically challenged include nature trails, fishing platforms, washrooms and picnic areas. Canoeing is only permitted within the bay areas of the island due to water level fluctuations from the nearby hydro dam.
The Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority manages the site. It is open to the public year-round, however, some of the facilities are not operational during the winter months.
