For years the tiny log dance
hall served the community. As its popularity grew, it was
enlarged to meet the growing demand and became known as the
Springhill Pavilion. The quaint building with the fold-down
sides attracted musicians from all over the territory. The old-timers liked
that the music resonated and the maple floor
came to life under their feet. As time passed, the old water-powered industrial base of Springhill faded away
but
the popularity of the dance hall grew. Over the
years the hall became
so popular that the ladies’ club lunches, sandwiches
served at midnight, had
to be accommodated next door in what is now referred to as
the dining hall,
built in 1934.
