The Derwent and District Agricultural Society is the volunteer organization behind most of what happens in the hamlet of Derwent, operating an arena and a community hall and hosting local events and community driven projects. Its own listing describes it as strictly run off volunteers in the community, which is how most rural Alberta ag societies keep buildings of this size open and available to the people around them.
MCSnet sponsors the Wi-Fi connection at the society’s Derwent location as part of its community partnership program, giving members, renters, and visitors a free way to get online without hunting for a cell signal. The same network works at every other MCSnet sponsored hotspot in the hamlet, including the nearby Derwent Arena and the Derwent Golden Ag Centre.
Where: 17 Centre St, Derwent, Alberta, Derwent, Alberta.
Use these steps to connect at Derwent & District Ag Society. 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.
