The Harrop & District Community Centre Society – a small but dedicated group of community volunteers – manages and maintains the hall through several annual events and grants from local government. <\/p>\n

The Hall remains a focal point of the community. It is an ideal place to celebrate community and social events such as weddings, birthdays, fundraisers and dances. The Society hosts the annual Harrop Harvest Festival – now in its fifteenth year – on the 3rd Sunday in September as a key fundraising event. The society has renovated and maintains the Harrop Schoolhouse, which now operates the summer garden market after a number of years of being held on the Hall grounds.<\/p>\n
