About Us
A community landmark over a century in the making
The Okanagan Mission Community Hall Association (OMCHA) has been a gathering place for the Mission community since its founding in 1937. What began as a local sports and social club more than a century ago has grown into a beloved neighbourhood institution — home to weddings, celebrations, community events, and everything in between.
Our landmark Big Red Barn and the smaller Scout Hall sit at 4409 Lakeshore Road, where generations of Okanagan Mission families have come together to connect, celebrate, and build community. We are a registered charity, run by a volunteer Board of Directors and supported by valued community partners.
