The first Cherryville Community Hall was built in 1934; this marked the beginning of the Cherryville Community Club, which became a registered society in May, 1961.  The founding directors were Joseph Myers, Charlie Sihlis, Joyce Sihlis, Sid Draper and Ruth Sihlis.

The objects of the society were and are (as reproduced, in part, from the society's bylaws):
a.To maintain, operate and conduct a community centre and to
  promote the best interests of the
  community and people of Cherryville and environs.
b.To acquire buildings or lands for the purpose of creating facilities for
  entertainment, meetings or sports.
c.To receive and hold gifts, donations, legacies and devices.
d.To build up community spirit and to engage in work of a moral,
  benevolent, charitable, philanthropic and community service nature.
e.To engage in work of an educational, cultural and recreational nature.

Since 1961 too many people to name have carried on and maintained the Cherryville Community Club.  It has run without disruption since it began - quite an achievement for a small community.  The Club is caretaker of the wonderful Cherryville Community Hall and community park, Hanson Park, both of which would make any community, large or small, proud to have in their community or town.  Cherryville remains a very strongly-knit community with residents displaying endless amounts of enthusiasm and willingness to get involved.  The club hosts the annual Cherryville Days celebration every year.

Monthly meetings are held on the first Tuesday of every month at 7:30 p.m. at the Cherryville Community Hall which is at the corner of North Fork & Specht Roads.  Although a nominal annual membership fee of $1.00 is required, every member of the community is invited and welcomed to meetings.

Old Business
* Hanson Park- needs a new hole dug for the new outhouses. Old one not suitable.
* Bingo building at the park- on hold until spring.
* Hall- Sign for Hall-still in progress.  Table inspections  still in progress.  Found out we have heat sensors not sprinklers.
* Heating- we will repair the existing heating fans because all other heating options are too expensive right now.
* Cherryville’s  90th  Birthday Celebration- There will be a celebration held at the hall on Nov. 8th and everyone is invited to come out and view lots of historic pictures and enjoy snacks  as well as birthday cake.

New Busin
* Hall- A title search was done on the hall property and “yes” we do own the land the hall is on.  Keys- At this time we do not see a reason to give out more keys for the hall.
* Hall rental policy- We all decided that personal profit events or classes could not qualify for free rental of the hall.
* Kyle made a motion to have the old hall chimney knocked down and replaced with new tin.  Eleanora 2nd.  All in favor.
* Recreational Committee of the Cherryville Community Club- Thanks to local volunteers an area for the outdoor skating rink has been cleared down at Hansen Park.  The RCCCC have also applied to various organizations in the hopes of attaining grant money for the cause. A zamboni was also purchased to clear and smooth the ice.
* Halloween Dance- Amber made a motion to have the RCCCC hold a Halloween Dance at the hall on Friday Oct. 30 as a fundraiser for the outdoor ice rink at Hansen Park.  Honeyslide have agreed to play.  Lindsay 2nd.  All in favour.
* October 31 Halloween night-  Fireworks will start at 7:30 at the hall this year and coffee and hot chocolate will be available to help keep warm. Everyone Welcome!
