Port Coquitlam let’s support local tradition Miracle on Rae Street into Lions park.
The Issue
Living in Port Coquitlam, Miracle on Rae Street was the event that marked the beginning of the holiday season for my family and I. It’s where our community gathered to transform the dark, chilly nights of winter into a haven of light, laughter, and togetherness. For so many families here, this yearly tradition provides not just entertainment but a sense of belonging and joy during a time when it can feel easy to retreat indoors and lose touch with our neighbors.
However, with each passing year, the challenges facing this beloved event grow larger. Rising costs, logistical hurdles, and, this year, the lack of official support from the city threaten to dim the brilliance of Rae Street. Without the city's collaboration, it's becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the level of vibrancy and joy that this event has brought to countless local residents.
We are calling on the city of Port Coquitlam to officially collaborate with the organizers of Miracle on Rae Street. By engaging with this event, the city can help to ensure that logistical needs are met, provide necessary funding, and offer the infrastructure that will make this year’s celebration the brightest one yet.
Investing city resources into Miracle on Rae Street not only secures a cherished tradition but also invests in the civic pride and unity of Port Coquitlam's citizens. As a historic event, it attracts visitors, bolsters local businesses, and strengthens our community bonds.
We need our city council to recognize the value of Miracle on Rae Street and to step in as partners to strengthen this community event for future generations. Together, as a community and with our city’s support, we can ensure that the magic and spirit of the holiday season are alive and accessible to every member of our town.
Help us to advocate for this cause by signing this petition today. Stand with us to protect and expand this cherished Port Coquitlam tradition, ensuring that future winters are not just cold and dark but filled with warmth, joy, and connection. Your signature can make a difference!
