The Abee Community Association runs the community hall that anchors the hamlet of Abee, a small crossroads on Highway 63 in Thorhild County, about 16 kilometres northeast of the Hamlet of Thorhild. Like most hamlet halls in the county, the building is the default venue for whatever the community needs: association meetings, wedding receptions, funeral lunches, birthday parties, and fundraisers, all run by local volunteers who book and maintain the space.
MCSnet sponsors a free public Wi-Fi hotspot at the hall, so anyone attending an event can get online without hunting for cell signal on the edge of a small hamlet. It is one of several MCSnet sponsored hotspots across Thorhild County, alongside the Egremont Community Club and the cluster of venues in the Hamlet of Thorhild, and every one of them uses the same network name and password.
Where: 5005 50 Avenue, Abee, Alberta.
Use these steps to connect at Abee Community Association. The network name and password are the same at every MCSnet sponsored hotspot.
No MCSnet home internet subscription is needed. Access to the building follows the venue’s opening hours and visitor policies.
Can’t see the network? Check that Wi-Fi is turned on and ask venue staff where the hotspot is available.
A hamlet the size of Abee does not have much beyond a hall, a few streets, and open farmland in every direction, and cell coverage out there can be thin. A free, encrypted Wi-Fi connection at the hall means a family setting up for a wedding, a volunteer printing off a meeting agenda, or a guest checking directions after a funeral can all get online right where they are.
MCSnet sponsors this hotspot as part of its community partnership program across rural Alberta. Browse the full hotspot directory, or read about internet across Thorhild County.
