Reasons To Invest

FESTIVALS &

RECREATION EVENTS 

The French-Canadian and Métis heritage of the Village should be celebrated. St. Pierre-Jolys could serve as a sattilite venue for Festival du Voyageur or Folklorama held annually in Winnipeg or additional cultural events. Festivals and events like these present spin-off opportunities for vendors and support facilities and services. 

 

In addition to hosting cultural events, St. Pierre-Jolys is strategically located to host larger recreational or sporting events. With a number of rural communities in the surrounding area, investment in recreational facilities can turn the Village into a recreational hub for surrounding communities and an ideal location for regional sporting tournaments.

OUTDOOR EXPERIENCES

& RECREATION 

Recent investment in municipal campsites in Parc Carillon demonstrates that there is a growing demand for outdoor recreation facilities. Given the proximity to Winnipeg and other larger centres, the Village is an ideal spot for people looking to escape the city. As a growing community, there is also potential for investment in recreational trails for cycling, cross-country skiing, hiking, and walking trails. The Village is also located along the Crow Wing Trail, which connects Winnipeg to the Canada-United States border at the town of Emerson.
