The Hale Hall was built in 1948 as a cafeteria for the workers that was building the Bonny Dam. About 800 workers moved into Hale with tents from 1948 to 1951. It was booming, booze, women and plenty of fighting and when the Dam was done, everybody left and that is how they got the building. The Bonny Dam was built on the South Fork Republican River, I was told today they drained the lake for Kansas, there is only about 6 feet of water, what a bunch of crap.
