About Highwood Centre
OUR STORY
Located in the heart of beautiful downtown High River, Alberta, the Highwood Centre stands as a testament to community spirit and collaboration. Founded in the mid-1940s, the Centre was borne from a collective vision to create a "community hub for social life in High River." The community-driven funding and the use of materials from the local Elementary Flying Training School #5, which trained pilots during the Second World War, have allowed us to preserve significant elements of High River's heritage.
OUR CULTURE
Steeped in rich community history, the Highwood Centre has been the heart of the community for over 78 years. The Highwood Centre is a REGISTERED CHARITY and is directed and managed by the Highwood Memorial Centre Society. The Highwood Memorial Centre Society Board includes representation from the Rotary Club and the High River Legion, who have been instrumental in our creation and growth, as well as the Windmill Theatre Players, who have been performing at the Centre since the mid 1970's.
By hosting events, funds raised go directly back into our operations and facility as well as to support various charitable and other initiatives in our community.
OUR MISSION
Connecting Communities, Celebrating Milestones: Empowering Together, One Event at a Time.
Our facility offers over 22,000 sq feet of event space which can accommodate groups from 20 to 1000. The Centre also boasts an 1150 sq ft stage, professional lighting system and lower dressing rooms which is perfect for all performance events.
