The Public is invited to participate in a Public Meeting set for WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 2025, beginning at 6:00pm.  This meeting will be held at Town Hall Council Chambers.  75 Main Street, 3^rd Floor, Souris, PEI.

The Town of Souris has received a request from KC Rentals (Kurt Chaisson, Stacy Chaisson & Craig Jackson) to Rezone PID 774869 (shown on the map provided) from its current zoning of PSI – Public Service Institutional to R3 – Mixed-Density Residential for proposed senior housing development.  This information is available on our website www.sourispei.com or in person at Souris Town Hall, 75 Main Street.

This proposed rezoning would require an amendment of the Town of Souris Zoning Map, Official Plan and Future Land Use Zoning Map.   Therefore, as per Section #18.4 of our Land Use Bylaw, the Town is required to notify property owners that live within a five-hundred-foot (500’) radius of the property in addition to an advertisement for a public hearing at least 7 clear days prior to the date fixed for the public meeting.  A sign will also be posted on the property.   This meeting will give Town Council an opportunity to hear and consider any concerns from the public prior to making their decision.  The applicant will also be invited to the meeting to answer questions.

You can either attend in person (or you can submit your concerns or questions in writing.)  Any written concerns or questions must be received prior to April 22, 2025, at 4:00pm and can be mailed to Town of Souris, PO Box 628, Souris, PEI, C0A 2B0, dropped off to Town Hall at 75 Main Street, or sent by email [email protected].  Please address to CAO Shelley LaVie RE: KC Rentals Rezoning Request

Fiddlers’ Sons – Thursday May 15th @7:30PM Tickets $25
Eddy Quinn, John Webster and Keelin Wedge perform together in the award winning folk music group Fiddlers’ Sons.

They are well known across PEI for their blend of traditional Maritime music and their own contemporary compositions about Island life.

Silver Wolf Band – Saturday May 24th @7:30PM Tickets $20
Silver Wolf Band is a four-piece Indigenous folk-rock band from Labrador. Lively, engaging, and self-assured performances of honest and sincere lyrical music is what makes Silver Wolf Band one of the most in-demand music groups from Labrador. Their music is piano driven and rich in harmony. Lyrically, their songs are shaped and informed by family, community, love, and their homeland itself.

Dusted and Kim Barlow – Saturday May 31st @7:30PM Tickets $20
Brian Borcherdt embarked on an entirely new path in 2012 with the release of his debut Dusted album, Total Dust, on Polyvinyl. The transition between these two projects was described as the comedown to the wild night before. Dusted’s surprise hit, Property Lines, led to further soundtrack work as well as frequent collaborations with the late director Jean-Marc Vallee.
Kim Barlow is an enduring presence in the Canadian indie-folk scene, who launched her acclaimed first album Humminah in Whitehorse in the last century. Recently returned to Nova Scotia, Barlow continues to be a creative and eccentric songwriter, skillful on guitar and clawhammer banjo, with several projects underway at all times.

What is Spud Fest?

Spud Fest is a shoestring, DIY, backyard music festival, established in the summer of 2020. This summer will mark Spud Fest’s sixth year! It’s nothing fancy, but it has a ton of heart. The festival is built on a celebration of inclusivity and creativity, and aims to bring together community members of all ages and backgrounds to appreciate art and music.

Just as there are many varieties of potato, Spud aims to program a wide range of music genres that’ll keep the mashes boogying all day and night long. Spud Fest is a completely non-profit event, with all proceeds besides those required for operation costs to be donated to charity.

Proceeds from Spud Fest VI will be donated to Harbourview Training Center – a non-profit organization located in Souris, Prince Edward Island, which provides on site employment and job training as well as a broad range of support services to clients with intellectual disabilities.

The Town of Souris is a proud sponsor of this event that promotes inclusivity and creativity in our community.
