Roseisle, Manitoba

Roseisle is an unincorporated community in south central Manitoba, Canada. It is located approximately 96 kilometres (60 miles) southwest of Winnipeg. The town contains a Co-op with a gas bar. Each year, Roseisle hosts thousands of people for its annual Canada Day celebrations which include tractor pulls, lawn mower races and a fireworks show. In the end of June 2015, the town was hit by a very large storm which had softball sized hail. It is also thought that a small tornado touched down. Due to the weather, many had damages so had to make insurance claims. The small town also has several churches and used to have a school but it shut down in the early 1990s or late 1980s[1] in the Rural Municipality of Dufferin.
