The Ashmont & District Agricultural Society runs the community’s Agriplex Road grounds, which include a hall, ball diamonds, a playground, a camping area, and the arena building the society lists as its Agriplex. Ag societies like this one are the backbone of small-hamlet life in this part of Alberta, hosting everything from family reunions and weddings to hall rentals, meetings, and fundraisers for the surrounding farm and lake-cottage community.
MCSnet sponsors a free public Wi-Fi hotspot on the Ag Society grounds, so anyone at an event, a practice, or a rental can get online without relying on cell signal. It is one of two MCSnet hotspots in Ashmont, the other being the Royal Canadian Legion branch a short drive away, and both use the same network name and password.
Where: 4019 Agriplex Road, Ashmont, Alberta.

Ag society grounds sit on the edge of town, often out of easy cell reach, and they fill up fast during ball games and community functions. A free, encrypted Wi-Fi connection means volunteers running an event and the families along for the day can stay online without eating into their own data.
