6. Help rekindle history

Thechurch at Orwell Corner Historic Village has not hosted a concert for almost 50 years, but Thursday Oct. 27 at 7 p.m. popular singer/songwriter Tim Chaisson will change that with an evening of traditional music.

The farm village grew up around the 1860's church, which was decommissioned 47 years ago when local churches amalgamated and the venue was not allowed to host gatherings like weddings or concerts. That recently changed, and historic site's board is now thrilled they'll be able to use the 200-300-seat church.

Tickets for the concert are $20 and are available at the door, through Orwell Corner or Beaconsfield Historic House in Charlottetown.

Proceeds go to improvements to the village, including electricity for the church.
