Haas Community Hall to be restored

On the west side of town, Weiser is home to a community gem.
 The Haas Community Hall, located at the corner of Haas and Jonathan roads, is a grand old lady that will soon be celebrating its centennial in 2023.  
 Started as a social club in the early 1900s, it has been the center of many great activities over the years, including but not limited to, dances, community dinners, celebrations of life, family reunions, and, most recently, hen parties.
 The Haas Hall is now enjoying a rebirth thanks to a large infusion of new members of the Haas Ladies’ Club.
 The club was originally formed to build friendships among the ladies on the Flat. It grew into a club that supported the community through service projects and providing a place to gather.
 The Haas Ladies’ Club has embraced the ambitious goal of restoring the Haas Hall. The group is also looking forward to reviving the hall into a thriving part of Weiser and surrounding communities, where they will carry on the Haas tradition of making many happy memories.
 To make the hall more valuable to our community, the building will be available for private events, parties etc.
 If you would like more information, rental details are available upon request.
 After nearly 100 years, not surprisingly, Haas Hall needs some repair and restoration to remain a viable facility in our community. Varied fund-raisers will take place throughout the year to fund the Hall’s restoration and the public service projects.
 We are excited to announce the first event will be the huge rummage sale. This will be a two-day event held on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 6-7 rain or shine. We will be open both days from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
 In addition to all the treasures to be found, snacks and drinks will be offered by the members of the Haas Ladies’ Club. You don’t want to miss Sue Harmon’s cinnamon rolls, which have always been a hit, or pieces of Killer Karrot Kake donated by Butter and Berries.
 This will be our first fundraiser for the renovation of Haas Hall. Please help us make it a huge success.
 Donations of rummage sale items (please no appliances or electronics) will be happily accepted.  These may be dropped off on the front porch of Haas Hall on July 26-28 from 8 a.m.-3 p.m. Thank you in advance for your generosity. We hope to see you there.                    
 Come one, come all and join in the fun at Haas Hall.
