Overview

The first community hall was built in 1932, was destroyed by fire ten years later. The current hall was built in the mid 1940's to facilitate weekly dances and town events. In 1978 the building was upgraded to have electric and gas heating.  The WVCA sponors 8 major events each year one of which is our major fundraiser of the year. In addition the association members put on a monthly jam session, a bi-weekly movie night and weekly morning coffee.
