St. Claude is a former village located to the west of Winnipeg, in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It is located within the Rural Municipality of Grey. It is home to the world's second largest smoking pipe. It is named the dairy capital of Manitoba as it is home to one of Manitoba's largest dairy processing plants and also displays a dairy museum filled with many artifacts. One of the other museums holds a two-headed calf, which was born over 120 years ago. St. Claude also has many facilities, including a bilingual library, two grocery stores, a curling rink, a skating rink (which hosts public skating every Friday during the winter), a Chinese food restaurant, two gas stations and a clinic. Despite being a small community, St. Claude is full of activity such as the annual Winter Carnival, the annual Summer Rodeo and the community-wide yard sales which occurs the first Saturday in May. The community is also a host to the Saint-Claude Gaol Museum (c. 1912) which was designated a Municipal Heritage Site in 2005. At the gaol, local people have their photo taken and put in the local newspaper, The Gazette. It is featured in the 2006 film "One Week" starring Joshua Jackson. There are two running schools, École communautaire Gilbert-Rosset is the community's French-speaking school. Complexe Scolaire St. Claude School Complex is the community's bilingual school. It educates the greater portion of students in St. Claude. == External links == *(http://www.stclaude.ca ) *(Map of St. Claude at Statcan ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「St. Claude, Manitoba」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
