#1654

Today's word is orange so I made my way to Old Strathcona to take a picture of the Loyal Orange Hall #1654.
Built in 1903 by the Loyal Orange Lodge #1654 it is one of the oldest public assembly buildings in Alberta. It is still used today as the public is able to rent it out for special events
