Rocky Bay Store

Overview

The historic Rocky Bay store on Glen Brook Road was built in 1924, then it burned down in 2003 and has remained a half burnt shell, that is all that remains we took some photos of it, if it ever gets rebuilt will update this post.

For many decades, the Omiha Memorial Hall and the Rocky Bay Store served as the social and commercial hub of the Omiha community.  The store closed in 2002 and was extensively damaged the following year by fire, leaving the hall as the centre of the community.
