Free Public Wi-Fi Across Lougheed

Lougheed is a small village on Highway 13 in Flagstaff County, near the Battle River Valley about two hours southeast of Edmonton. Its Royal Canadian Legion branch carries the name of Cecil John Kinross, a Lougheed soldier awarded the Victoria Cross for bravery in the First World War, and the village runs on the same volunteer organizations that keep small Alberta towns going, from the curling club and outdoor rink to the Senior Citizens Welcome Club and the Legion hall.

MCSnet sponsors free public Wi-Fi at four spots around Lougheed: the Lougheed Curling Club, the C.J. Kinross VC Royal Canadian Legion Branch 180, the Lougheed Senior Citizens Welcome Club, and the Lougheed Outdoor Rink. Every hotspot uses the same network name and password, so once your device connects at one, it will remember the others too, whether you are watching a bonspiel, dropping by a Legion event, visiting the seniors club, or watching the kids skate.
