Driving Directions & Map

Carroll's Corner is a quiet, friendly community in rural Nova Scotia Canada.  The area offers peaceful living in a clean environment, surrounded by private homes and family farms among rolling hills and pastures. 

But the peaceful appearance can be deceptive; our Community Centre is busy every day & night of the week, providing an important central location for activities appealing to all ages and walks of life.  Teens, adults, seniors and families, all make the Recreation Centre the true heart of our community!
 

It pays to be a Member!

Recent legal changes require that all users of the hall must now be members or guests of members, so we've put together some benefits to make your membership more valuable:

• Reduced fee for hall rentals.

• Family membership starting at $15 a year.

• Monthly newsletter emailed directly to you.*

• $1.00 OFF the regular price of dance tickets.

• FREE use of computers with high speed internet connections.
