A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held, unveiling the new amenities that replaced the previous building.

In attendance were RDN chair Vanessa Craig, Electoral Area F (Coombs, Hilliers, Errington, Whiskey Creek, Meadowood) director Leanne Salter, Area E director Bob Rogers, president of the Errington Farmers Market Danika Ziger, and Laurie Mitchell, vice-president of the Errington War Memorial Hall Association.

Many updated features in the new building include accessible washrooms with accessible door buttons, a grab bar, accessible sink and appropriately placed hand towel dispensers, a partially covered wrap around deck with an accessible ramp, and a kitchen with commercial-grade appliances and large serving windows to order and pick up food.
