Economic Development Officer’s Message
Hello, and thank you for taking the time to check out our Souris Guidebook.
I fall more in love with Souris and the surrounding area every year. The seasons come and
go, and I find that this is the one place in the world where I am completely happy to come
home to. Someone once described the whole area as “park like”. That’s exactly it! If you
were to take a large inhale, then slowly exhale you will know the feeling here in Souris. It’s
right there, halfway through that slow exhale when you feel the tension leaving and a calm
washes over you.
I might be biased, but we have THE BEST shops here in town. From our drool-worthy bakery
to the unique and eclectic stores to find treasures you will be met time and again by top
notch customer service and a friendly welcome. In addition to all the necessities, we have
art, flowers, jewelry, and wellness shops. Hungry? We have excellent restaurants with
something for everyone. The accommodations are great too if you are coming to spend a
little time and really get to know the community.
More than anything, I welcome you to Souris. This guidebook was one of the first things my
family and I explored to get familiar with Souris and I hope it helps you to enjoy our
community too. If you are interested in support for your business, please contact me and I
will be happy to help find answers you need to grow!
Sincerely,
Echo Finlay Economic Development Officer

So many reasons to visit Souris
Beautiful
The Souris River Valley, Plum Creek and
Victoria Park create a stunning
landscape for this small town and
community of just over 2,500. The new
design of the swinging bridge is a
stunning display of an historic concept
built with new technology. Souris is a
great location for weddings, family
reunions, get-togethers and
conferences. There is a full slate of
commercial services and venues to
choose from, no matter what season it
is.
Fun
Souris is a lively place all year round,
especially in the summer when
thousands come to visit our Swinging
Bridge and many other attractions or to
see family and friends. Many activities
throughout the year keep residents and
visitors busy.
Progressive
Progressive is defined as favoring
change, advocating progress,
improvement, or reform. Our
community is constantly evolving in
ways that improve our quality of life.
From agriculture and industry to
tourism and lifestyle amenities, there
are many projects and events on the go
at any given time.
Diverse
Strong roots in the agriculture and railway industries date back to the late 1800’s. To this day, many
multi-generational family farms still operate century-old farms. Historic buildings dot the landscape.
Our swinging bridge, museums, heritage buildings and progressive industrial heritage have kept the
population and economy steady over the past century.

The Swinging Bridge
Celebrating Canada’s
Longest Swinging Pedestrian Bridge
The Souris Swinging Bridge is one of Manitoba’s Star Attractions. The first bridge was built in 1904 by
Squire Sowden who wanted to improve access to town from his land on the east-side of the river in
order to make it more attractive for potential buyers. Since 1904, the swinging bridge has been
reinforced, rebuilt, and seen many pranks and antics performed on it over the years. In 2005, it was
featured on a Canadian postage stamp. The current bridge was completed in August of 2013 and the
new design has allowed Souris to once again reclaim the title of having Canada’s longest swinging
suspension bridge boasting 604 feet.
Spanning the Souris River, it is a popular backdrop for beautiful photographs that help capture life’s
important milestones such as a graduation, wedding, or a family reunion.
Celebrating 117 years since its original construction, the Swinging Bridge remains our town’s most
famous landmark. It is truly a beautiful sight to appreciate any time of year! Follow the blue and yellow
Star Attraction signs located throughout Souris to help locate the bridge.

142 – 1st Street South (204) 741-0631
In an effort to share with visitors the long
history of the bridge, its impact on the local
community, and the construction of the new
design, an exhibit was put together and is on
display this summer at the Plum Museum and
Visitor Centre.
Through support from the Province of Manitoba
Tourism Development Fund, the bridge exhibit
includes an interactive 65” SMARTBOARD, which
includes touchscreen videos and images.
The Plum Museum, now part of Travel Manitoba
Visitor Services Network, this structure was first
erected in 1883 and is Souris’ oldest remaining
public building. Originally St. Luke’s Anglican
Church, it was decommissioned in 1989 and
later moved to its current location where it was
restored to its original Victorian colours of plum
and chocolate brown. Here you’ll find tourism
information, souvenirs, and more than likely, a
muster of peacocks while touring the museum
collections.
In the off-season, the building can be rented for
private functions. Also makes a great place for a
wedding!
Admission is free, donations are welcome.
Open July and August.

The Memorial Complex Community Hall The Avalon Theatre Victoria Park Bowl, Outdoor Stage
The Avalon Theatre was build in 1929 and opened for business March
1930. Owned by the Municipality of Souris Glenwood, operated by a
volunteer Board of Directors and manned by a corps of volunteers from
Souris and District. The Theatre had a major upgrade in 2012 with the
installation of a digital projection system and refurbishing of the Theatre
itself. As a result of this new system, we can offer new movies in a timely
fashion.
Because of our many volunteers, we can keep our canteen prices very low.
The Theatre is available for rentals: birthday parties; private movie
showings; meetings; and what a lovely setting for a wedding ceremony.
The Souris District Arts Council and other community groups rent the
Theatre for many of their performances as there is a stage area and new
dressing rooms.
The Avalon Theatre is a “must see” when you are in Souris.
