In 1950, the Shawnigan Improvement District and the Shawnigan Lake Volunteer Fire Department were formed, and the fire department built this hall in the centre of town. On February 16, 1977, the Shawnigan Lake Historical Society was formed to provide a home for the collection of memorabilia that had been preserved by the local trustees, but without a physical home at that time. In 1983, the fire department built a new hall (
WMHWRX) and moved out of this one, and the Historical Society moved in and opened the Shawnigan Lake Museum.
