I hope this is helpful...I don't have any particular contacts within this
organization, just have gone to breakfast at the hall and know it exists.

Thanks!

The Legion hall in Harewood is one I suggested, too, Valorie.
I have never even seen/heard about the Moose Hall (nice and close to me and
you!), nor the Costin Hall in Lantzville (which would be an ideal location,
IMO).  Do you have contact info for any of them?

Aline & everyone,
What about the Moose Hall near Southgate...does anyone know if that can be
rented and for how much? They serve breakfasts to large groups so have a
decent kitchen. There was also a small Legion Hall in the south end that
Rotary rented last-minute for an event - bit of an awkward layout but I
think it had a kitchen. 
The Costin Hall in Lantzville is large enough and has a great kitchen...we
used to use it for an annual Rotary event so I've spent a lot of time
volunteering in that kitchen.
Keep well,
Val

Ahh - thanks, Colin... it's good to have first-hand info like that. :-)
I'm looking forward to finding out more about the Parksville Hall, for sure,
and the downtown hall as well (for future consideration). :-)

I like the idea of the Parksville Hall, as it's close to mid-way for
Hartwood.  With Peasants Revel in Courtenay, White Court was *supposed to*
be in Nanaimo... well, we *could* do it in one of the Nanaimo halls, but I
think Parksville would be darn near perfect - if the facilities are suitable
for us. :-)

[I have a family background/connection with the Masons, with my grandmum
having been in Eastern Star (and I earned a university scholarship from
them), my youngest sis in Jobes Daughters, my Grandad in Masons).]

The Masonic Lodge in old town is in a heritage building - kinda neat.  But I
don't know about their facilities, either.  (Something to look at, for
sure!)
(Oh - and long, low-ceilinged rooms, as in the hall on Morpeth, feel very
'period, IMO. ;-) )<<<It may sound period, but NOPE! :-) I suppose with a
skilled team of decorators working flat out for a couple of days you MIGHT
be able to get something that if you squinted at it in a dim light, could be
imagined as looking faintly kinda sorta period!>>>

(My apologies to the Shire for not being to offer other options/venues back
when this was being discussed, as I am only JUST beginning to find out about
what is available.)

The Masonic Hall on Morpeth Ave In Nanaimo has a reasonable kitchen but a
cramped ( long and narrow low ceilings) dining area. Been a long time sine I
was in the one in the old town so I am not sure what their facilities are
like. The Masonic Hall in Parksville has a smallish kitchen, but a very
nice, newly renovated Dining area. Sgain and I have contacts for most of
these halls so if 1 is wanted, speak to us! :-) (Now he will be prejudiced
towards the Courtney Hall and I to the Parksville one, so you would have to
sift and judge our responses!)

The one for the Peasants' Feast?  That was a most excellent hall!
There are a couple of other halls here in Nanaimo, I think, that could be
checked out, too...?  A Masonic Hall (or two or three), I am sure; plus the
Harewood Legion Hall (they do have a good-sized kitchen)...?
