The Viking and District Agricultural Society is the volunteer organization behind much of the town’s community programming. Its stated purposes are to manage local recreational facilities and to promote rural lifestyle, and it works as a fundraising organization with a fair board and a rodeo club. The society operates the Viking Community Hall on 54 Avenue, a large event space with seating for more than four hundred, a dance floor, a stage, a meeting room, and a kitchen and bar. Each summer it also hosts chariot and chuckwagon races in Viking.
MCSnet sponsors the internet connection at the Ag Society, so anyone using the hall or helping out on a race weekend can get online without depending on a cell signal. The Ag Society is one of several MCSnet sponsored hotspots in Viking, alongside the Legion, the Historical Society museum, United Church, the Golf Course, and the Senior Citizens Club, all sharing the same network name and password.
Where: 5021-54 Avenue, Viking, Alberta.

Can’t see the network? Check that Wi-Fi is turned on and ask venue staff where the hotspot is available.
Race weekends and hall events draw families from farms and acreages around Beaver County where cell coverage is thin, and volunteers running a fundraiser often need to look something up or take a payment on the spot. A free, encrypted Wi-Fi connection means the hall stays usable no matter how good the mobile signal is that day.
MCSnet sponsors this hotspot as part of its community partnership program across rural Alberta. See every free Wi-Fi hotspot in Viking, the full hotspot directory, or read about home internet in Viking.
